I adore lilacs. Which is why I had the landscaper plant ten bushes three years ago while he was sodding the yard. Sadly, two years after they were planted, I started getting seasonal allergy symptoms. I tried to bring cut lilacs into the house last spring. Result: sneezing, itchy eyes and a frantic search for Benadryl!
This is my experiment to see if I can bring lilacs into the house without scratching my face off ... hope it works!
You will need:
- Old style canning jar (or any jar with a proper-fitting lid)
- Bleach
- Water
- Fresh flowers & leaves. Use open blooms, if possible. Closed blooms in water tend to stay closed.
