In my case it does not last long because I cook wit a lot of cilantro but it has lasted a few weeks at lease. I like the idea of putting them in a cup of water though. I will try this Sugar Oh and maybe if you use a moist towel that would work as well.

The same for my green onions, making sure the green leafy part's are covered, this may ttake two pieces of towls since they are a bit longer. I also have semi flat trays for these kind of leafy veggies, so maybe this may work for you? Either way you do what works for you.

If it is leafy like cilantro or green onions, I don't wash until I need them and I wrap them around a paper towel and place onions in zip lock baggies once cut.
