If you don't have these flowers in your garden, use what you have and possibly supplement with some from the edge of the ditch. Start by filling a bucket halfway with lukewarm water. Take it with you around the garden and cut the flowers you need. Let them soak for an hour or two. It is best to collect flowers in the morning or in the evening. This is where the stems are at their most juicy. When the flowers have drawn water, they must have a new oblique cut.
