gardening tips
"Conditioning is the term
used to describe various
methods of preserving the
color, strength and life of
fresh flowers, greens or
shrubs after they have been
cut," Nancy Miller informed
the lone Garden Club at their
August meeting held at Judy
Osmin's home.
The three requirements for
conditioning are: 1) water
cool or hot, 2) controlled
temperature (refrigerator is
great if you have room
otherwise coolest part of
house) 3) a shaded draft free
spot to condition at least two
hours but a day and night is
best.
General steps in condition
ing are : Always pick flowers
in the evening after sundown.
Carry a bucket of water with
you into the garden, clippers
or knife, candle & matches
and a hammer. Cut stems
firmly on a slant and strip all
lower leaces so there will not
be any leaves under water.
Flowers can be divided into
groups according to their
conditioning needs. All you
have to do is look at the stem
and you will know what to do
to help the flowers draw in as
much water as it can hold.
Thin or fleshy stemmed flow
ers such as tulips and petun
ieas are treated as in the
above general steps. Flowers

Flowers with stems that
bleed, such as poppies, are
sealed by searing the stem
ends with the burning candle
before placing in water. Flow
ers with hollow stems such as
dahlias are placed in scalding
hot water for about a minute,
keeping the steam away from
the blossom by putting paper
over the saucepan and stick
ing the stem through the
paper.
Flowering shrubs such as
lilacs should have all the
leaves and little stems re
moved. Make a crosswise cut
across the bottom of the stem
and pull the skin off the
branch about two or three
inches above the cut. Put in
washtub of cool water over
night. Delta Huber is general
