I used a bit of clear nail polish to fix a broken rose stem for a wedding in Chicago last month.

The bride's bouquet had a snapped stem on a key rose, and I was out of floral tape. I brushed the break with polish, held it for a minute, and it held perfectly through the whole ceremony. Do you think this is a good quick fix or a bad habit that could hurt the flower?

Nice save, that's clever. I've used super glue on a snapped orchid stem before, worked like a charm for the day.

Will it kill the flower faster though?
