I know a woman who started rose bushes from her mother's funeral bouquets, as a remembrance.

Cuttings can also be taken from flowers and plants. My mother-in-law grew a cutting from the foliage of my wedding bouquet and I've seen a gardening expert take cuttings from carnations bought at the petrol station.

And if they're still in good condition, they can be dried, extending their life and usefulness almost indefinitely. I love dried flowers on my Christmas tree!

Also another use. If you have a nursing home in your area, like we do, take the flowers to them. We have done this in the past and they are so appreciative. If it is a big arrangement, you can break it down into smaller ones to be put into rooms of those allowed to have flowers.
