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. Rather than digging around for old pennies, get yourself our cute copper charm or give it as a gift to your flower loving friends. Note: You’ll actually be digging for really old pennies since any penny made AFTER 1982 is made with mostly zinc and contains less than 3% copper. We made sure that our charms are made of PURE copper. There are many products that are copper colored, but aren’t actually made of copper.Southern Living, Apartment Therapy, and Readers’ Digest all agree, copper is a smart way to keep flowers alive. And don’t just take our word for it, read our reviews. We recommend using one charm for small and medium vases and two charms for larger vases. Review: Incredible! - My blooms lasted for 3 weeks with this copper heart. It’s not only so beautiful, but it miraculously works! I could not believe how long the flowers my husband sent lasted. I usually get 1 week at best with plant food. With precious petal I got 3 weeks! Yes, some flowers didn’t make it as long (like a rose which would never last 3 weeks, but they lasted longer than I ever thought a rose could last!). What I did was slowly pull out the flowers that were wilting over a LONG time and replace them with some fresh supermarket flowers. It looked like a brand new arrangement. Make sure you keep the water levels up. With the heat on in the cold temps that also can kill an arrangement. If I had the patience i know you are supposed to fully empty the water, cut the stems a bit, then replace the water with new, but the arrangement was so full, I would never be able to put it back the same way, I would make a mess, and I am swamped with work I just don’t have the time. If you do, hats off and I would bet you would get a month out of your arrangement with precious petals! I ordered this on a whim. I love flowers and I don’t care if they come from the street, supermarket, bodega, or a florist. Having fresh blooms around make me calmer and happier. I was actually searching for a box of plant food when I stumbled across the product and read reviews and am so happy I bought 3 of them. I’ve already ordered one for my mom, grandmother, and sister too. I am not being paid for this review, I am actually still in shock at how well this simple little copper heart worked so well I felt like it warranted a 5 star review. A+product! Review: 10 days and going strong. - Day three and still alive and look fresh. Will update. Also, very cute. Well it's been 10 days. For the first few I cut them and changed or filled the water every other day. They had no food unless you count the charm. The pictures are days 3, 8, and two pictures on day 10. I'm going to feed the bouquet I get today and compare. It seems odd that these aren't molding at all. ## Features - 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.

They really work at keeping the water fresh and extending the life of my bouquets. They are very pretty too. I was afraid I might accidentally toss them out with the dirty water but they are really heavy for their size so they make a loud thunk in the sink to remind me they are there. I have since bought two more.
