Best Inexpensive Fresh Flower
It’s got to be carnations! I love having fresh cut flowers in my home, but don’t like paying big bucks for them, especially when they die after just a few days. These carnations (in varying shades of violet) seriously last forever! They are the SAME ones I posted about here. 10-12 days later and, although a few wilted and had to be tossed, the majority of them still look great! See . . . 
Isn’t it just great to see some fresh flowers at your kitchen sink? Makes doing dishes a bit cheerier:) 
Do tell, what flower have you found that really lasts?
I love the fresh flower look too, but do tell your secret to keeping them alive!! Food? Changing the water? Help! No matter what, mine always seem to die within a week :/
Lindsay- I don't do anything to keep these babies alive! That's the thing- I sometimes add more water if I see it's getting low, but really they are that low maintenance:)
I totally agree! I would buy a bouquet of these about every 2 weeks in college to brighten up my dorm and they would last forever! I like the purple though, I've never seen them in that shade of violet. Love them (:
LOVE the purple color so much! And yes, carnations and daisies last forever!!!!

Hi, Megan! You know, I usually hate carnations, but if I found such pretty ones like you have, in that beautiful color, I would certainly buy them. They look so adorable in your beautiful kitchen!
Best regards,
Gloria
Oh, and what flower have I found that usually lasts? A silk flower! I know that most people hate silk flowers, but I absolutely ADORE silk flowers!
