If you don't have one, you can make your own recipe. Mix one-pint Sprite, one half teaspoon bleach which can kill bacteria with one-pint warm water.

5. Now you can put roses in your vase. But firstly, cut the stems at a 45-degree angle under water for quick absorption. Then remove any leaves that fall below the water line. Submerged leaves can rot and pollute the water. 6. Don't cut the stems too short, as it's necessary to trim them again a few days later to keep the roses fresh.
