Ideally a rose bud should not be more than open or a half open. To aid in the nourishment of the rose whilst standing in water at least three leaves should be left on the stem. Cut off all leaves on the stem below the water line as these will rot and poison the water. Once the water starts getting cloudy it should be replaced with clean hot water. read more
