Then I take out the bad ones and leave the good ones. Usually happens once a week because the water starts getting stinky. annie624 on "s/o: When do you throw flowers out?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-when-do-you-throw-flowers-out#post-350587 Fri, 19 Oct 2012 14:04:02 +0000 annie624 350587@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'm pretty bad about it. I usually don't until there are petals all over! Usually it's about... a week-ish? Maybe two? They are usually lookin' pretty rough by that time, though. sunny on "s/o: When do you throw flowers out?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-when-do-you-throw-flowers-out#post-350575 Fri, 19 Oct 2012 13:56:20 +0000 sunny 350575@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @ms.janedoe: I know! the worst part about flowers is that I make a huge mess when I try to put them in the trash. Which is why I procrastinate and hope that DH does it... but he never does.

I always put it off until the last minute, then I wait even longer because they're brown and falling apart and I know the second I touch them, they'll explode into a million pieces. alayaya on "s/o: When do you throw flowers out?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-when-do-you-throw-flowers-out#post-350520 Fri, 19 Oct 2012 13:24:11 +0000 alayaya 350520@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Mine are always totally brown and dead before I get around to throwing them out...

I should probably do it sooner, but flowers in my home are rare so I try to hold out as long as possible. wheres_c on "s/o: When do you throw flowers out?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-when-do-you-throw-flowers-out#post-350175 Fri, 19 Oct 2012 11:03:25 +0000 wheres_c 350175@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @Leialou: ditto. mine are completely dead by the time I throw them away.

I tend to be a procrastinator and let the petals start falling off before I throw them out. But if there are still good flowers, I leave those in the vase and just throw out the bad ones. Do you throw out flowers when they start browning/drying, dropping petals, or before? Do you throw out the whole arrangement when a few flowers start dying, or do you throw it out piece meal like me?
