Question:

What type of water additive would prolong a bouquet of roses?

I heard you should add coffee grinds to rose bushes in an outside garden; I am interested in the care of cut roses.

Answer:

Add a tablespoon of sugar to the vase of roses.
If your steering shakes at a high speed then you need to have your front wheels balabced, if they shake all the time your alignment is off simple as that.
Have your tires balanced and get an alignment
Add 1 teaspoon of bleach and 1 teaspoon of sugar. The bleach stops mold and mildew and the sugar will help the flowers survive for a few extra days.
An aspirin tablet seems to work fine, I use that if I am out of the additive they sell to preserve cut flowers. Chrismas tree preservative works great also and is far less expensive. I would stay away from sugar water, it'll attract ants and encourge the growth of molds.
