A glass vase filled with pears makes a dramatic base for a floral arrangement. It adds a layer of wit and sophistication to a large and showy display, or elegance and warmth to forcing branches.
- Clear vase
- Bosc pears to substantially fill vase
- Water
- Flowers or branches for forcing
- Pruning shears
Fill your vase about 2/3 full of pears and cover the pears with water. Arrange your flowers, or branches in the vase, tucking the stems between pears gently so as not to pierce the flesh. Use the pruning shears to give your stems a fresh cut.
