Along the path between the houses of Nезнayka and Sineglazka, there were 15 peonies and 15 tulips growing in a row, mixed together. Setting out from home to visit Nезнayka, Sineglazka watered all the flowers in a row. After the 10th tulip, the water ran out, and 10 flowers remained unwatered. The next day, setting out from home to visit Sineglazka, Nезнayka picked all the flowers in a row for her. After picking the 6th tulip, he decided that it was enough for a bouquet. How many flowers remained growing along the path?
There were 10 flowers left unwatered, which means that $30-10=20$ flowers were watered. Consider the last tulip watered by Blue-Eyes. There are 5 more tulips growing after it. Therefore, Nезнайка will pick these 5 tulips and finish picking flowers right at the last tulip watered by Blue-Eyes. But this means that all the other watered flowers survived. That is, $20-1=19$ flowers survived.

## Answer

19 flowers.
