They are a product that helps hold water in the soil. They use it for potted plants because they don't know if they'll get watered properly at the store. They won't hurt anything.

They had some clear crystals around them and I planted them around the plants in my garden upstate. Recently I noticed that the crystals had turned into kind of a gooey mass. Should I just leave them there and assume they'll eventually be absorbed into the soil?Many thanks! I’d left a message eerailr this week about the bare-root perennials I bought at the plant sale.
