does wild coffee plant keep as in flower arrangement

Duxbury, MA(Zone 7a)

Does anyone know if branches of wild coffee shrubs will last if I cut them and put them in a flower arrangement?

Oviedo, FL(Zone 9b)

As it is a fairly common shrub, you should cut some sample branches and find out. I would cut them early in the morning and leave an angled cut end. Put them in a bucket of cool water overnight. Most of the articles about Psychotria nervosa or the wild coffee plant don't list any floral design uses for the cut branches. Or if you have Oasis, soak a block of it and put some stems in overnight to see how they do.
