Bana Triple Vase: Arranging Tips for Tall Stems

Quick answer

For tall stems in the Bana Triple Vase, use the tallest tube for the main stem, angle shorter stems in the outer tubes, and rotate the vase for a fresh look.

How to arrange tall stems in the Bana Triple Vase

1. Choose your tallest stem: Select one tall, sturdy stem (like a branch or sunflower) and insert it into the tallest tube. Make sure it reaches the bottom so it stays upright. Common mistake: using a stem that is too short for the tallest tube, which leaves a visible gap. Measure the stem against the tube before cutting.
2. Add secondary stems in the outer tubes: Place medium-length stems in the two shorter tubes. Angle them away from the center to create width. Common mistake: crowding all stems in one direction, which makes the arrangement lopsided. Step back and check the balance from all sides.
3. Fill with small accents: Insert small blooms or foliage into any remaining space in the tubes. The bias cut lets you tuck stems close to the rim. Common mistake: overfilling, which hides the vase's sculptural steel tubes. Leave some steel visible to keep the look modern.
4. Rotate and adjust: Turn the vase to see how the arrangement changes from different angles. The three tubes create a new silhouette with each rotation. Common mistake: forgetting to rotate, so the arrangement looks flat from one side. Rotate the vase every few days to enjoy the evolving look.
