These curious and amazing gel cubes swell to over 10 times their dry size when submerged in water, and can retain the impressive crushed ice look they gain when saturated. Because they retain water so well they are also ideal to place in clear vases around the stems of flowers and plants which may take up water from the gel.

The gel packs are very re-usable - simply add more water when they eventually start to shrink - a truly worthwhile addition to any vase !
