Where do you cut flowers on the stem?

I have:


1. Sunflowers


2. Daisies


3. Carnations


4. Zinnias


5. Baby's Breath


6. Bachelor's Buttons





Is there a GENERAL place to cut these flowers for bouquets, etc, on the stem? Like I heard for roses you need to cut three leaves down or something? What about these flowers I have listed? Where do I cut them?

Where do you cut flowers on the stem?
depends on the size of the vase or whatever you are putting them in, etc





one thing i DO know is that you cut them diagonally, so they can get the most amount of water sucking up in the stem =)
Reply:to the length you want them at a 40% angle slantered to suck the water in better


good luck

Reply:it depends on how long you want the bouquet, or how big your vase is
Reply:always start cutting at the bottom but cut it slanting the cut..and each day you cut a little more off but a slanted cut.
