Borlotti, Morrisons seems to be the worse supermarket for this but last year in a bunch of "going over" flowers there was a lovely pink Gerbera so I bought the bunch and came first in the local show with my ladies buttonhole using the Gerbera. I know, I know, but there were no roses in my garden (I've bought a whole pile of them now). And, would you believe, all the others who enter this section have always used tinfoil to wrap around the stem and thick leaves to rest the flower on. I used florists's tape and fern and this year everyone used green tape of somekind...and ferns. I came nowhere. Have to think of something different.Sorry to ramble.
