Flower Food Alternative for Fresh Cut Flowers | Copper Charm Stops Bacteria Growth in Your Flower Water | Just Place It in The Vase, Reusable (10)

The Old Wives’ Tale That Really Works: "Drop a copper penny into the vase with your flowers to help keep them fresh for longer." Southern Living, Apartment Therapy, and Readers’ Digest all agree, copper is a smart way to keep flowers alive. When it comes to keeping cut flowers looking fresh, the aim of all home remedies are to keep icky, slimy, sticky things from developing in the water. Where does the copper come in? It helps keep flowers alive because it naturally cleans your vase water. We’re making this home remedy even better by introducing our 100% copper charms, thicker and heavier than an old penny, and better looking, too. It is reusable, eco-friendly, and comes in a micro suede cloth bag for safe-keeping between uses. We made sure that our charms are made of PURE copper. Any penny made AFTER 1982 is made with mostly zinc and contains less than 3% copper. There are many products that are copper colored, but aren’t actually made of copper.
