Florists are damn stingy with those little packets of "preservative"
they give you with cut flowers.
What is that powder? And most important, is there a good preservative
that you can make at home?

I don't know what's in that stuff, but I've put a few drops of bleach in the
water and it does seem to help quite a bit.
