"POOJA JAIN: Hi, this is Pooja from Valaya FNP, today on behalf of Expert Village. After using the swan plant, we come to another flower. This is called the phalaenopsis. As you can see, this is in another different shade. This has pink spots on it, which are purple basically. And now we have various ranges in this. We have it with a tinge of pink. We have it with tinge of yellow. Then there are total pink color, the magenta color, the bright, shocking pink. Now, this again would be placed somewhere. Now, we would be using the flower which is phalaenopsis. Now, this phalaenopsis stem, as you can see, it is again tilted and cut straight. I have the test tube with me which is filled with water, but there is no water dripping. I have to insert the stem in this. Once I insert it, this water would last for around 24 hours or so. So if I need to refresh my stem, I just have to take out the tube. I have to refill it with water and again stack it in to the stem. These flowers I would be using because it is a drooping look. That is what I want to get. I would be tying it up in various levels. I take the wire, fix it with the stem and here goes my wire, which I am using to wrap it around. I have used a silver-color wire here because that is really not visible and this really does not give the [SOUNDS LIKE] local effect."
