Step 2

The orchids normally are sold in plastic grower's containers. If you choose a container/basket/pot that is just a little bigger in radius than this plastic container, you can simply drop the orchid plants into the purchased containers.

Step 3 (optional)

For an extra spring look, add green moss to cover the base of the plant. This will give the table a brighter, garden feel.

If you purchase the moss and do this yourself, you'll save $50+ compared to having the florist add this little detail for you.

Step 4

Tie a colorful bow to the stem of the orchid plant. Be very gentle as not to break the stem. Voila! You've got a beautiful orchid centerpiece!
