Three-Flower Bouquet Costs

SQLMediumMid level~15 min

Problem

A florist stocks single stems in `Stems`, each with a per-stem `price`. A signature bouquet uses exactly **three different stems**. List the cost of every possible three-stem bouquet. Within each bouquet the stem names must appear in alphabetical order, separated by commas, and no stem may repeat. Output `bouquet` (the comma-joined names) and `total_price` (the rounded sum of the three prices, to 2 decimals). Order by `total_price` descending, then `bouquet` ascending.
