When I first started expanding Windflower's product range beyond hand bouquets, vase arrangements weren't on the radar. Most florists in Singapore treated them as an afterthought — a bouquet dropped into a generic glass jar. But after years of fielding the same customer request ("I love the flowers, but I don't have a vase at home"), we realised the real opportunity: design the arrangement around the vessel, not apart from it.
Today, our flower vase arrangements are one of the strongest parts of our catalogue. Over 50 designs, from a $45 carnation jar to a $259 hydrangea centrepiece — each one ready to display the moment it arrives. No trimming, no arranging, no hunting for a vase that fits. That's the whole point.
Why We Design Differently for Vases
A bouquet and a vase arrangement might use the same flowers, but the design logic is completely different. With a bouquet, the stems are gathered tight and the presentation is one-sided — the recipient sees a "face." With a vase, the arrangement sits in the round. It needs to look good from every angle, which changes how we layer stems, where we place focal blooms, and how much greenery we use as filler.
There's also the practical side. A vase arrangement needs enough stem length to anchor in water, but not so much that the proportions look off. We test every vessel in our range for weight (it shouldn't tip), opening diameter (too wide and the stems splay; too narrow and you can't fit enough variety), and water capacity (a shallow vase dries out faster in Singapore's heat).
This kind of detail matters because the arrangement needs to hold up for 5–7 days in a tropical climate. We've tested dozens of vase shapes over the years and settled on the ones that perform best — clear glass cylinders for visibility, ceramic jars for a warmer feel, and our signature caramel bottles for a casual, modern look.
Choosing the Right Arrangement for the Occasion
One of the most common questions we get is, "Which vase arrangement suits my occasion?" Here's how we think about it at the studio:
For Homes & Housewarmings
Living room centrepieces need presence without being overwhelming. Our Hitomi Vase ($126) is one of our most popular picks here — it pairs roses with seasonal fillers in a classic glass vase that fits coffee tables and console shelves equally well. For something warmer, the Hopeful Flower Vase ($103) uses soft peach and cream tones that work in most Singapore apartment colour schemes.
For the Office
We get a surprising number of corporate orders for vase arrangements — they're easier to maintain than bouquets because they arrive in water, ready to sit on a reception desk or meeting room table. The Bright Smile Vase ($108) with its sunflowers and eucalyptus is a frequent pick for office gifting. It's cheerful without being fussy, and sunflowers hold up well in air-conditioned environments.
For Romantic Gestures
Dinner table centrepieces are where vase arrangements really shine. A bouquet laid on a table takes up too much space and can't stand upright. A vase arrangement, on the other hand, creates a natural focal point without getting in the way of plates and glasses. The Cupid Vase ($108) is designed exactly for this — roses, lisianthus, and wax flowers in a compact glass vase, sized so two people can still see each other across the table.
For "Just Because"
Not every flower delivery needs a reason. Our Daily Surprise In A Vase ($75) is our most popular entry point — our florists pick the freshest stems from that day's market haul, so every arrangement is unique. It's the one we recommend when someone says, "I just want something pretty on my desk." We also carry a dried version ($83) for anyone who wants something longer-lasting.
What Sets Our Vase Collection Apart
We've been doing this long enough to know that the small things compound. A few details that our regular customers notice:
Vessel quality. We don't use disposable containers. Every vase in our range is a proper glass or ceramic piece that the recipient can reuse. Some of our best-sellers — the caramel bottle, the frosted cylinder, the ribbed jar — have become recognisable as Windflower designs. Customers order again partly because they want another vase for a different room.
Stem-to-vessel pairing. Each design is built for its specific vase. The Carnations In Caramel Vase ($45) uses short-stemmed spray carnations that sit snugly in our narrow-neck caramel bottle. Putting the same stems in a wide cylinder would look sparse. Conversely, the Cheery Yokina Vase ($179.90) uses long-stemmed roses and hydrangeas that need room to open — it comes in a wider vessel with more depth.
Climate consideration. Singapore is humid and warm year-round, which affects how long different blooms last in an arrangement. We've gradually moved toward varieties that perform better here — carnations (7–10 days), chrysanthemums (10+ days), and tropical fillers like hypericum berries. Roses are always popular, but we pair them with hardier stems so the arrangement doesn't look tired after day three.
Premium Vase Arrangements for Special Moments
For occasions where the arrangement itself is the gift — anniversaries, milestone birthdays, congratulations — our premium range starts where most florists stop. The Blissful Blossoms Vase ($185) is a full-bodied arrangement of roses, matthiola, and lisianthus that fills a room. And for something truly memorable, the Celestial Blue Romance ($259.90) — a lavish hydrangea centrepiece that we build to order.
We also carry preserved flower vases for anyone who wants the look of fresh flowers without the maintenance. The Cotton Fluff Vase ($88) lasts 1–3 years with zero upkeep — popular with customers who travel frequently or want flowers in spaces where watering is impractical.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to transfer the flowers to another vase?
No. Every arrangement arrives pre-arranged in its vase with water. Just unwrap the packaging, place it where you'd like, and top up the water every 2–3 days to keep the flowers fresh.
How long do fresh vase arrangements last in Singapore?
Most of our fresh vase arrangements last 5–7 days in Singapore's climate. Carnation and chrysanthemum-based designs tend to last longer (up to 10 days), while rose-heavy arrangements peak around day 5. Keep the vase away from direct sunlight and air-conditioning vents for the best longevity.
Can I request specific flowers in a vase arrangement?
Our named designs use set flower combinations, but our Daily Surprise range gives our florists creative freedom with the freshest stems available. If you have a specific colour or flower preference, add a note at checkout and we'll accommodate where possible.
