Daily Halacha - Is it Permissible to Place Cut Myrtle Branches in a Vase with Water?

Is it permissible to place cut myrtle branches in a vase with water?

Aromatic woods and myrtle branches may be placed in Shabbat, even initially, into a vase containing water. It is also permitted to add water to the vase and then place the myrtles and aromatic plants inside. All the more so, it is permitted to add water on Shabbat to a vase that already contains such plants. However, flowers and roses whose buds are closed and likely to open in water should not initially be placed on Shabbat in a vase containing water. Also, if one removed them to smell them, they should not be returned to the vase. But if the roses and flowers have already opened, it is permitted to place them on Shabbat in a vase containing water. One who is stringent regarding roses even when they have already opened will be blessed [Yechaveh Da'at 2, 53].
