A dish garden is a floral and foliage arrangement that is placed inside of a ceramic pot, wooden container, or basket. Dish garden flowers generally include a variety of greenery and floral elements that complement each other to produce a stunning arrangement. Dish gardens generally last longer than other types of floral arrangements, as they are arranged and delivered in a dish or pot. With proper care, a dish garden can continue to flourish long after it has been delivered.
To help your dish garden flowers last as long as possible, it is important to ensure they are given proper maintenance and care in the form of adequate sunlight and water. Display your dish garden flowers in an area that has medium sunlight - avoid exposing the arrangement to full sunlight since this may cause permanent damage to the plants. In terms of watering, it is recommended to water dish garden flowers only once per week. Use approximately a half cup to one whole cup of water, depending on the size of your arrangement. The containers in which the dish garden flowers live in do not include a drainage system, so it is important not to over-water and flood the roots. To maintain the flowers, use scissors to lightly trim the plants when they outgrow their container. Replanting in a larger container with fresh potting soil and fertilizer is recommended for healthy growth.
