Rhododendrons

[rewolf]

I have a wedding this weekend and my rhododendrons are in full bloom.
How are they as fresh cut flowers? Will they last 2 days?
They would be designed in vases of water.
Thanks!

I have used rhododendrons in water before and they held up fine. 2 days not a problem. All my rhododendrons have already faded away here.

They'll be fine in water. Mine are done now, but I filled small vases with them, placed them throughout the house, and they lasted 5 days in water. This week its peonies in the home and shop......just beautiful and the house smells so good!

Mmmmmmmmm....rhodos, I do so wish I could grow them here!!!
They'll be fine. Just process them well, and then use them, Then enjoy the reduction in your cog!
I love rhodos!!!
