Bouquet of red and white roses

This composition is suitable for an important family celebration or a children's party—for example, for a graduation or a birthday. The red-and-white palette looks equally good in a child's hands and as a large gift for an anniversary. The roses hold their shape and stay fresh for a long time, so the bouquet remains striking throughout the entire event.

To make cut flowers last longer, trim the stems at an angle and change the water in the vase every two days, rinsing it and removing any leaves that end up in the water. Keep the vase in a cool place away from direct sunlight and drafts.
