Ingredients

  • Glass Vase
  • Pebble rocks
  • Paperwhite bulbs
  • Water

Instructions

  • Place paperwhite bulbs on top of rocks
  • Done! Set in a sunny spot and you should see roots begin to grow over a weeks time.

Notes

Paperwhite stems are on the taller side. To shorten the stems, after roots begin to show, remove water and replace with water that has a 5% alcohol content in them. Alcohol such as vodka will work. This inhibits the plants ability to pull in as much water, stunting their growth, but not inhibiting the production of flowers or the life of the plant.
