TSEWYEK.. interesting use of the buds.. I'd tried using theopenflowers.. butthey don'thold up real well..
at what point in theflower do you break them off for the water bowl...
how much water are they in
wouldn't they just sink..
do you secure the ends to the botom in some way .
anychance of getting a picture [ or two ] of how they look in starting in the bowl... thanks Gordon
