  2. I love the whole citrus method! Not only is it very unique, it's very cute and thoughtful as well! Thanks for the cute design. I was thinking, wouldn't the citrus damage the stems of the flowers and decrease its life?

  3. Hi Karina, We recommend keeping the citrus slices separate from the flower stems by using floral foam or a vase within a vase. If you read the newsletter article, we describe the process of how to design with slices of limes inside the vase and how to keep them separate from the floral foam.

  4. Oh I see. I was thinking even if I use the foam, would the citrus leak through and lower the life of the flowers. It's nice to know that it doesn't! Thanks.
