Lovely Looking Floral Water Beads

By Katrina Wheeler


Floral water beads are made from special polymers, using absorbent polymer technology. They contain water, carbon dioxide and nitrogen, and make just a perfect environment for planting some types of plants. Thanks to their design, they slowly supply plants with liquid and food, and look more than interesting when placed in glass bowls and vases.

Some indoor plants can work well planted in beads only, without any dirt or soil added. For example, Bamboo. Dragon plant, Arrowroot and all palms will also appreciate this lovely looking, moist environment. Of course, some plants cannot be planted this way, and they need soil to survive, while some others wouldn't mind a combination of water bead and quality soil.

In any case, you can always put a flower or two in your glass vase filled with these decorative and soft little things. They really look great, supplying water to your flowers, and decorating your lovely home on the most unusual way. They are available in many appealing colors hat can be very nicely combined. Except those clear ones, you can buy pink, yellow, green, gold, silver, blue or any other color you find especially attractive.

They usually come in small, practical packages of five grams. Each package contains tiny little seed-like things that will become larger once they soak up the liquid. This process usually takes up to twelve hours, and you will get maybe three cups of soft, hydrated marbles from one tiny package. Depending on the type, some seeds may become three hundred times larger when hydrated.

Simple and decorative, they can be placed in any vase or any other glass container. Available in several sizes, they can provide very interesting effects. Red, gold, silver and green ones will be a perfect addition to your Christmas decoration. When Easter comes, you can replace them with orange, green and yellow ones, to bring a touch of spring to your lovely home.

If you try to touch them, you will be surprised how soft and smooth they feel. Don't worry, they are not slimy. When you want to change your decoration, simply remove them from the bowl and let them dry for several days. After that, they will be small again and ready to be appropriately stored. You can use them again when you feel like it. They are quite durable, and you will be able to use hem over and over again.

There is another nice way of using them. They will be very interesting to your children, if they are old enough to play with them. Of course, you should supervise them during play, because these balls aren't designed to be swallowed. Small kids shouldn't play with them, because they often put things in heir mouths. There are some really interesting games that can be found online, if you need an inspiration.

In any case, these soft marbles can be used as an appealing decorative element. Scented packages are also available, for decorative purposes. Floral water beads are just perfect for people with hectic work schedule, because they won't have to worry about watering their lovely plants regularly. These little things will take a very good care about it, watering and feeding them on the most exciting way.
