Does Cut Flowers Last Longer In Sugar Or Salt Water?

Sugar as it give more nutrients put you need to change the solution every couple of days to get the best results

Cut flowers last longer in a mixture of both salt and sugar water. The salt helps kill bacteria uncloggin the xylem so water can enter it. The sugar will somehow subtitute the glucose the plant produces during photosynthesis. Both mixed together will help the plant better than sugar water alone or salt water alone
