Description: Beautiful formicarium decoration. To make the plant flourish, hold it under a tap for a short time. Then put the rose in a shallow container and pour water over it. It is enough if only the roots of the plant are under water. You will experience an incredible miracle of nature. Within 7 hours, this inconspicuous, lifeless bulb will turn into an attractive green plant. If you can't wait that long, you can also douse the rose with boiling water, which would otherwise destroy any plant life. Even this can not harm her, and she immediately opens. In 15 to 20 minutes it will come to life and you can directly observe this spectacle. Once this is done, you can leave it in the water for a week. Since it is a desert plant, it naturally needs little water. Therefore, after watering, it needs a dry period of at least two weeks. In the dry state, it can withstand centuries without dying. For this reason, one can only guess how much life energy is in this plant. As long as the Rose of Jericho does not get too much water, it cannot die.
Illustration: Here you see a dry plant above and a moistened plant below. Product differs from the picture because it is a natural product.
Background: The Rose of Jericho comes from the desert areas of Israel and Jordan. Since it can be revived as many times as desired, it is also called the resurrection plant.
It was first brought to Europe by the Crusaders and revered as a sacred plant. It is a very mystical plant that never dies. It is already mentioned in the Bible, and the Virgin Mary is said to have blessed it on the escape from Nazareth to Egypt, giving it eternal life. The pilgrim Ludolphe of Suchem reported in the 16th century that on the path along which the Blessed Virgin walked, roses grew which bear the name "Rose of Jericho".
