Flower buying guide for vases
Flowers for vases are one of the essential elements when we talk about this type of decoration. It is true that they do not have to be present today (you can have a vase but not fill it with flowers) but you cannot say that it is not more striking if you put some in it than if you leave it empty.
However, there are some details that you should take into account when buying these flowers. The most important for us are the following:
Size
Imagine the following scene. You have a vase in your house and you buy a big flower. So you decide to put it in the vase but it falls over due to the weight of that flower.
The reason this happens has to do with the size of the vase. You can not place some flowers that are larger than the vase because, among other things, it will lose stability, or it will disappear from view and it will seem that it does not exist.
Visually you will create an 'ugly' effect and you will not achieve that goal you had with the flowers.
Try choose flowers that match the vase that you have, especially in terms of the size of these.
Forma
Regarding the form, you know that there are many types of flowers in the plant kingdom. There are the big ones, the ones that fall, etc. and choosing the right one is important.
For example, if the vase is tall and long, you could put some cascading flowers combining with some great ones.
Material
Yes, we are talking about material even though we are dealing with flowers for a vase. And it is that, although it is normal to use natural flowers, sometimes these do not last and it is better to opt for artificial ones so as not to have to be cleaning and changing them every so often.
Artificial flowers are made of many materials: plastic, silk, paper... Polyester is currently the most widely used and it gives good results in them.
Price
Finally, the decisive factor when buying has to do with the price that the flowers cost you. And this, in turn, depends on the size, quantity, shape and material.
So you can find flowers from 0,50 euros, but the most colorful and beautiful will be from 15 euros.
What can be put in a vase?
A vase is a container for flowers. And the normal thing is that, if you have one, you use it by placing some flowers to decorate it. But can you only put that? Not really, today other types of decorations are allowed for these.
To give you examples, you could place shells to give it a marine touch, use it as container to multiply your plants (the cuttings put in them with water), create a beach scene with sand and some characteristic elements… And so we could spend a long time giving you ideas to put in a vase.
What flowers are used to decorate?
When it comes to choosing flowers for vases, you really have a lot to do. There are multitudes of flowers, both known and unknown.
The most common and those that we relate to vases are roses. But there are actually many more that you can use, such as: carnations, orchids, tulips, lilies, hydrangeas, lavender, etc.
There are no specific flowers to decorate, but it will depend on the type of decoration you have or even on your personal tastes.
Where to buy?
And we come to the end. But we only want to lend you a hand also to leave you some shops where you can buy vase flowers. Actually there are many, but the most searched on the Internet are the following (this is what you will find):
