Finally figured out why my hydrangeas kept wilting within an hour of cutting them

Took me like 3 months to realize you have to cut the stems at an angle and dip them in alum powder from the spice aisle, has anyone else had that lightbulb moment with a flower you thought you knew everything about?

OH MY GOD the alum thing is a GAMECHANGER I was doing the same thing with peonies for MONTHS.

@morganl71 my friend boiled her hydrangea stems for 30 seconds and felt like a genius.
