Cut a thin but sturdy twig to a sharp angle. The little twig will be used to spear the leaves to secure. Set it aside within easy reach.
Curl about 4 leaves into a tube.
The one leaf overlapping the next.
Spear the leaves with the twig to secure.
Set the leaf tube on a shallow display container.
Pour water into the container.
Cut the freesia stems long enough to be set between the leaves and still stand in the water below.
Wiggle the stems between the layers of leaf.
Making sure they stand firmly in the water.
