First off, it is essence.  Secondly, it would vary depending on which extract you wanted.  You need to know what "aroma" you wish to get out from the plant(s).  After you know that, you need to figure out the structure, then you can develop of means of extrapolation of the essence.

I THINK ROSEMARY. MAYBE A HINT OF LEMON JUICE. JUST PLAY AROUND W/ THE HERBS. YOU CAN'T REALLY GO WRONG. GOOD LUCK. IT'LL TURN OUT GREAT.

There are two primary ways to propagate roses. Asexual reproduction is usually used to produce a duplicate of the parent plant. Sexual reproduction, i.e. growing roses from seed, is primarily used to create new varieties of roses. \nCommon methods of asexual propagation of roses are softwood rooting, hardwood rooting, and bud grafting. Limited space permits only a brief description of softwood rooting. \n\nOld Roses, English Roses and Miniatures are generally good candidates for rooting cuttings because they usually grow vigorously on their own roots. Modern Roses such as Hybrid Teas and Floribundas are usually sold budded onto different rootstock. Some Modern Roses do grow vigorously on their own roots, while others do not. Below is a description of softwood rooting from Karen Baldwin with some changes. \n\nROSE PROPAGATION A LA ZIPLOCK BAGGIES \n\nMAKING THE CUTTING \n\nPreferably take a cutting on which the bloom is barely spent, so that all the petals have just recently dropped off. It is okay to take a cutting earlier, but at least make sure color is showing in the bud. These are indications of the maturity of the wood in the stem -- you want something in between the extremes of greenwood and hardwood. \nTry to have at least four separate leafsets under the bloom, and a five-leaflet set at the bottom of the cutting. (Each spot where the leafsets meet the stem forms a "node," where the bud eyes are, and from which roots can form. Hybrid teas tend to have fewer "nodes" spaced farther apart than Old World roses, and thus require a longer cutting, generally speaking). Make a clean bottom cut with a sharp, clean pruning tool 1" below the last node. Try to leave about 1/2" of cane above the top leafset. \nKeep your cuttings fresh in water while you gather more, until you're ready to plant them. \nPLANTING THE CUTTING: \n\nFill a 1-gallon zip lock baggie 1/4 to 1/3 full (about 3") with STERILE loose potting mix. (e.g., 1/2 peter's potting soil and 1/2 vermiculite). A 2-gallon ziplock baggie may be better since it will give the leaves more room, but use the same depth of soil you'd use in a 1-gallon baggie, since you'll be watching for roots growing through it, later. \nMoisten the mix but do not make it extremely wet. Use 1 tsp. miracle gro per 1 quart of water, to provide some initial nutrients (which may help avoid yellowing and leaf-drop). With your hands, firm the soil down well, within the baggie. The soil should be very damp, but there should be no standing water in the bottom. \nSnip off the stem a little above the top-most leaf set (i.e., remove the flowering part). Try to leave about 1/2" of cane above the top leafset. \nStrip off the bottom two sets of leaves (where the stem will be pushed into the soil). \nScore the bottom part of the stem along its length (vertically) for an inch or so. (An exacto-knife works nicely for this purpose, but fingernails will do fine.) Roots will form along this score. \nDip scored end of cutting into rooting compound, a couple inches deep. Knock off the excess (you can get too thick a layer). Stick the cutting a couple of inches into the soil. \nIf insects have eaten the leaves during previous rooting attempts, you may wish sprinkle a very small amount of diazinon or other insecticide on the soil surface. Be especially careful if you are using chemicals indoors. \nMist the cutting and the interior surfaces of the baggie with a spray bottle filled with the following mix (to avoid fungus and mildew growth in the closed "terrarium" environment). Do not use spraycan fungicides or insecticides ... in the closed environment, the chemicals can overwhelm then kill a new young plant. 1 quart water 1 tsp. miracle gro 1 tsp. baking soda (no more!) 2-3 drops dishwashing liquid (to make it cling) \nZip baggie almost shut. Breathe into it 'til it expands kinda like a balloon, and zip the rest of the way closed. (Keep it closed unles

First, you will need one of the bouquet holders, that have styrofoam mounted to it.  Secondly, select your flowers.  The way you attach the flowers, is with floral picks.  Green sticks, with wires on the end.  (Available at Michaels, etc.)  You will also need some white floral tape to wrap around these, later.\n\nWith wire cutters, cut the flowers apart...and at the desired length that you want them.  Lay the stem of the flowers against the pick, and wrap the wire around it...to secure it to the pick.  Wrap the pick and much of the green stem, with the white floral tape.\n\nArrange flowers in the bouquet holder.  For the cascade effect....use longer picks that extend the flowers downward, and/or some vine type flowers that will hang down.  Attach ribbons, in the color of the wedding with picks, too.\n\nIf you want the ribbon to look like it is woven throughout the bouquet, make small loops of ribbon....attach each single loop to a pick....and put them all around the bouquet.  Be sure to cover as much green as you can, as this is a wedding....or, if you prefer to let the green show...use green floral tape.  Most prefer white, though.  \n\nJust be sure to fully cover all the wires, to give it a neat appearance.  It really is easier than it looks.  You can do it!

may cities now collect your fall leaves and compost them. In return you can pick up the free compost at their facilities. \n\nAlternatively you can compost the leaves yourself. Depending on your lot size, you can buy different composting bins. For a typical city lot, a small plastic bin is sufficient. For a healthy compots you need equal parts brown, green and dirt.\n\nBrown is your dry leaves, twigs, paper etc. It provides the necessary carbon.\n\nGreen is your kitchen scraps such as vegetable peels, grass clippings, which provide moisture and nitrogen.\n\nDirt... well, from dust to dust, you know how it goes. the dirt provides the necessary fungi, bacteria and earthwork to mix the whole thing. \n\nthere is also accelerated composting... but don't worry about it. For home use, keep it simple with the above mentioned recipe. In a year you will have nice brown healthy compost for your garden.

Cuttings - take a piece of the plant, usually stem, and plant it. With luck it will root & grow into a clone of the original plant. (You can also take leaf & root cuttings.)\n\nMicropopagation -take just a few plant cells. Put into a special culture medium & treat with plant hormones. The cells divide and form a callus. Alter the ratio of hormones and the callus grows roots. Alter them again and it then grows leaves. You then have a very small plant.

I'd say the easiest is e-bay to start, and it might prompt you to find something bigger and better.  I live in a place where Caladiums are a big (not really big, but big for this town) industry and it would be nothing to buy Caladium bulbs for next to nothing and sell them on E-bay.  So finding a shippable item in your area to start, then making your own website and then your own catalog and so on.  Learn as you go.

Here are some fun and A+ ideas.\n\n1. Can solar energy be used to cook food? (You will build or buy a solar oven and see if it is possible to cook hot dogs. Simple and really is A+ material. Trust me, that's what I got on it!)\n\n2. What are all the microscopic things found on one strand of human hair? (Test a strand of your hair, someone else's hair and more under a microscope. Easy, simple, and informing.)\n\n3. What ingredients help plants grow? (Test different soil and items to see what makes plants grow the most affectively. Easy and fun.)

go to Michaels.com\nDo a search on wedding bouquets or silk flowers etc.  Then it gives you step by step instructions with supplies.\nHope that helps!

well photosynthesis is a good way to start. the water from the roots are pulled by cohesion and then it leaves from the stroma in the plant leaves.
