These are arrowhead plants which are grown for chinese new year. Need to change water regularly so as not to breed mosquitoes.
It took about one month for them to grow to this height. It's attractive, jade green arrow-shaped leaves point skywards and to the Chinese, this is an auspicious sign as it signifies continuous improvement . To read more about this you can read from the source in here.
Marbles or pebbles are added so that the plant will be stablised and not fall off.
Do you remember my previous post on this cactus plant? Well, it had given birth to more baby cactus...lol. You might want to see my previous photo of the pair of cactus in here.

Really, just water? Amazing how they can grow that way. Nice touch with the colorful pebbles :-). Aaaaawwww I wish I can find arrow heads here so I can try that one too. This really caught my interest.
never heard of it before. what's unique is that it's connected to the new year.

I used to have cactus about five years ago but sadly, they have not survived the weather in my town. I am just so delighted to see offspring of these cactus in your garden.
Have a nice week ahead alice.
