PAL Question:
Is there anyway to slow the browning of a fresh cut Magnolia
flower? I am using it as a decoration and would like to cut it the day before.
View Answer:
According to The World of Magnolias by Dorothy Johnson Callaway (Timber
Press,1994), if you cut the flowers at an early stage (before they open)
and keep them in a cool room, they will last for several days. They are naturally
fragile, and it is for this reason that they are not usually used on a large scale
by florists.
If you only need to keep the blossoms fresh for a day or two, then
keeping them cool should be sufficient.
