Top up the water every two days, keep the jar out of direct sunlight, and away from any ripening fruit bowl (ethylene shortens vase life). If a single stem droops earlier than the rest, lift it out, re-cut at a 45-degree angle under running water, and return it to the jar. The gerbera and the snapdragon will be the first to show their age; the statice will outlast everything. With this care, Carnival in a Jar holds for five to seven days.
