Why Glass Vases Are Used To Display Flowers
When we buy or get given flowers what is the first thing that we do? Invariably we look for nice glass vases that we can display them in. People have used glass vases to display their flowers ever since it was invented, but what is the logic behind the glass dominance. Well there is logic behind it believe it or not and here are the main reasons:
Easy to clean. Due to the fact glass is so dense and smooth, there is nowhere for dirt to ingrain and it is simple to clean. Also, unlike darker coloured materials, dirt gets shown up easily and cannot hide. Dead plant cells and plant water is a breeding ground for destructive bacterias and in order to keep new flowers fresh, these need to be cleaned out well before a vase is used again. New crystal vases may be a little more expensive but they are actually known to have antibacterial qualities
Photosynthesis. Plants get their energy from the sun and process it in a process known as photosynthesis. Put simply, if you deprive a plant from light its growth will be stunted and it may even die. This is the reason for people suggesting that when you display flowers, they should be getting plenty of sun light. Flowers in glass vases are given the best chances of producing energy for themselves, and thus staying fresh, as the glass lets in light from every direction.
Viewing pleasure. This last one is very basic. We buy flowers so that we can enjoy the look of them, and seeing as a large part of the plant is below the neck of the vase, glass makes perfect sense. Actually, you’ll often see that a number of the characteristics that make plants so beautiful are things that are found below within the depth of the vase, which would be lost if it where not transparent. This is the same reason that we buy wine glasses, so that we can actually enjoy the view of what is being contained.
