    No to my knowledge bottom watering is just a different watering technique and not an additional step

    It actually looks perfectly healthy to me! The flowers dying is completely normal. How long are you letting it sit in the water?

    I keep it in water and when in runs out I refill it it’s just sitting in a small dish

    I agree with Riley, I think it’s fine. Just pinch off the dead flowers!
