Completely submerge Stephanotis in Crowning glory when you get it in and leave it until you use it. It will not turn brown for days. Leave it in too long though and the stephanotis will go clear. Never have to worry about stephanotis again!
I am not a big fan of Crowning Glory....but, I am also not opposed to it. From reading posts for several years, I actually thought I was the only person in the industry that did not use it on a regular basis.
My favorite is Hawaiian Mist or Floral Mist. But, I think this product is nothing like crowning glory. It seems to me that it is a growth hormone invented by the University of Hawaii when trying to find a product to prolong the life of tropicals. Then they found that it seemed to work on almost all flowers. I don't think it is a coating like Crown and Glory, but helps the product to have a longer shelf like. Correct me if I am wrong about this.

I swear by CG... It saves ALL my august weddings!! The only flowers I don't use it on are "velvety"-type roses like black magic... I find it takes away the velvet-ness aspect....

Do you mean that if you spray it on something, it will grow? hmm?
