Has the summer heat gotten to their petals? There's relief in sight—a “sauna bath" treatment, This technique is simple, ac- cording to Ortho’s book “All About Roses,” and can rejuve- nate your. tired roses withi hours! First, cut the rose with a sharp knife at least % inch above the end of the stem at a very sharp angle, exposing as much cut surface to the water as possible. Next, immerse the stems in’ deep water that’s too hot for your hands (90 to 100 degrees ‘ahrenhcit). Let the roses soak until the water cools. Then place the entire con- tainer in the refrigerator or a coo! place for a couple of hours to condition the blooms. When you're ready to rear- range the roses, fill a vase with fresh water and add one of the floral preservatives available in garden stores or flower shops.
