Examples of Flower Arrangements in Floor Vases

Fresh Florals

• Fresh-cut gladiolus, orchid sprays, iris, carnation, tulip and tall stemmed flowers including roses fit into tall floor vase arrangements for home and party decor. Exotic tropical bouquets of bird-of-paradise, anthuriums, orchid, heliconia and ginger are striking in a vertical, fan or oval arrangement in a tall vase. A fresh season floral arrangement in a separate container is set into a tall floor vase that has a weighted bottom.

Silk Flowers

• Silk flowers are easily manipulated into shapes conducive to the Hogarth or S-Curve floral arrangement for an elegant tall floor vase. Silk flowers are made with long stems up to 7 feet tall which work well for vertical, triangular and oval tall vase displays. Single flower sprays or a mixture of floral stems make long-lasting arrangements.

Dried Arrangements

• Dried flowers and grasses are favored for long-lasting round or fan-shaped arrangements in a tall floor vase. Commonly used dried flowers are long stem hydrangea, carnations, roses, zinnia, rudbeckia, sunflower, globe amaranth, salvia, brown-eyed Susan and statice. Wheat, grasses, cedar and cattails are added to fill the in floral arrangement.
