- Treat them at cut flowers. They will ALWAYS die back - all of the leaves will
- fall off. Unless you live in a tropical climate or are a seasoned green thumb,

-
- Throw them out (or compost them) when you get sick of them.

- P.S. Brent, I think it is sweet that your husband wanted to brighten up your
