My girlfriend is arriving by bus tomorrow, and I want to give her a rose when she gets here. I won't have time to get one in the morning, so I'll have to buy it tonight. I want it to look bright and fresh when I give it to her, as if I had purchased it moments before. What can I do to keep it fresh? Any additional advice for when I'm sitting around at the bust station after the hour ride there would also help.

refrigerator
Freeze it in liquid nitrogen.
Keep in a cooler place, like a refrigerator or in the car.
Keep it in your refrigerator in water.
i think at the store when you get the rose they should have little packets of stuff you can put in the water so the rose will last longer. i heard putting some sugar in the water helps too.
After getting the rose, keep it cool and out of sunlight. An hour before giving it to her, fill the sink with cold water and submerge the rose in the water. This will rehydrate the stem and flower and will make the rose firm and full.
Enjoy.
Cut the bottom of the stem to reveal a fresh piece of the stalk.
put it in a container with some water and place it somewhere in you refrigerator. It should probably fit on a shelf on the door.
sit it in water with an asprin in it
Trim the end about 1 inch from the bottom at a 45 degree angle under running water, then put the rose in water and store in the fridge. Clipping the end enables the xylem and phloem (tissues inside the flower) to work better at keeping the rose healthy and pretty.
Keep it wrapped in the cellophane that it probably had wrapped around it when you got it and put it on the bottom shelf of the fridge. Should be fine tomorrow.
Put a water in a small cannister
The florist should be able to give you a solution to add to the water in the vase that will help preserve the rose. If you’ve already gotten it, crush an asprin tablet and add it to the water. Cut half an inch off the stem end with a sharp knife so that the flower gets plenty of water.
Also, keep the rose in a cool, but not cold place, and make sure that there’s plenty of cool water in the vase. Before you leave for the bus station, wrap the end of the stem in damp paper towels, and discard them before giving her the rose.
Good luck with the rose and the romance!
put it in a glass with water…must be in cool place..
cut the stem on an angle. place in vase with cold water with a tablespoon of sugar in the water.
for that fresh look: sprinkle some water on the petals before giving it to her.
for the bus station:
1) take along a book on relationships. can’t hurt to know a little more ;)
2) look around at the concession stands for a nice little something. who knows, maybe you’ll find a shop that sells fresh roses? you may want to do a mapquest on the area, maybe you’ll find a nice restaurant for lunch , or a pharmacy/supermarket to buy a fresh rose.
good luck!
sounds like you’re in a gr8 relationship if you’re thinking along the lines of giving the best for your gf!
have a gr8 life!
I think if you keep in in the refrigerator or in a VERY cool place it should be ok. Roses last about 3-5 days so you really don’t need to worry :)
place in water than put in fridge. While waiting you could wrap it in a cold damp towel that you had also but in the fridge or freezer the night before!
Dont keep it in the fridge as overnight this is likely to damage the petals. Keep in a cool place and spray mist with water if the air is dry. Single roses purchased from a florist usually have a little water storage capsule in the bottom of the wrapping, if not then place it in a glass or vase of water.
spray a little water on it place it in a plastic case the flower show should have some then place it in the frige
