a vase proper including a generally cylindrical sidewall and a lower disk-shaped portion; and
a mounting stand coupled to the vase proper, the mounting stand including a generally cylindrical flange sized and configured to receive a lower portion of the generally cylindrical sidewall of the vase proper, the generally cylindrical flange open at a top and a bottom thereof,
wherein the mounting stand includes a plurality of detents extending radially inward from the generally cylindrical flange,
wherein the vase proper includes a plurality of openings arranged and configured to receive the plurality of detents and cooperate with the plurality of detents to couple the vase proper and the mounting stand, and
wherein each opening of the plurality of openings includes a first portion having a first radial dimension and a second portion having a second radial dimension, the first radial dimension being greater than the second radial dimension.
2. The two-part floral display assembly of claim 1 , wherein the vase proper and the mounting stand are both constructed of an injection molded plastic.
3. The two-part floral display assembly of claim 1 , wherein the vase proper and the mounting stand are sized and configured to be assembly first in an axial direction and second in a rotational direction.
4. The two-part floral display assembly of claim 1 , wherein the mounting stand includes an upper generally cylindrical portion and the vase proper includes a lower portion axially receiving the upper generally cylindrical portion.
5. The two-part floral display assembly of claim 1 , wherein a lower end of the vase proper is closed by the lower disk-shaped portion.
6. The two-part floral display assembly of claim 1 , wherein the lower disk-shaped portion includes a plurality of holes axially extending therethrough for water drainage.
7. The two-part floral display assembly of claim 1 , wherein the vase is configurable to a first, use orientation and a second, shipping orientation, such that in the second orientation, the vase proper is nested within spikes of the mounting stand to effectively reduce an axial length of the vase.
8. A method of assembling the two-part floral display assembly of claim 1 , the method comprising configuring the vase in a first orientation by inserting a lower end of the vase proper into an upper generally cylindrical portion of the mounting stand and rotating the vase proper relative to the mounting stand.
9. The method of assembling the two-part floral display assembly of claim 8 , the method further comprising configuring the vase in a second, shipping orientation by nesting the vase proper at least partially within axially extending spikes of the mounting stand to effectively reduce a length of the vase.
10. A two-part floral display assembly comprising:
a vase proper including a sidewall and a lower disk-shaped portion; and
a mounting stand coupled to the vase proper, the mounting stand including a flange sized and configured to receive a lower portion of the sidewall of the vase proper,
wherein the mounting stand includes a plurality of detents extending radially inward from the flange,
wherein the vase proper includes a plurality of openings arranged and configured to receive the plurality of detents and cooperate with the plurality of detents to couple the vase proper and the mounting stand, and
wherein each opening of the plurality of openings includes a first portion having a first radial dimension and a second portion having a second radial dimension, the first radial dimension being greater than the second radial dimension.
11. The two-part floral display assembly of claim 10 , wherein the vase proper and the mounting stand are both constructed of an injection molded plastic.
12. The two-part floral display assembly of claim 10 , wherein the vase proper and the mounting stand are sized and configured to be assembly first in an axial direction and second in a rotational direction.
13. The two-part floral display assembly of claim 10 , wherein the mounting stand includes an upper generally cylindrical portion and the vase proper includes a lower portion axially receiving the upper generally cylindrical portion.
14. The two-part floral display assembly of claim 10 , wherein a lower end of the vase proper is closed by the lower disk-shaped portion.
15. The two-part floral display assembly of claim 10 , wherein the lower disk-shaped portion includes a plurality of holes axially extending therethrough for water drainage.
16. The two-part floral display assembly of claim 10 , wherein the vase is configurable to a first, use orientation and a second, shipping orientation, such that in the second orientation, the vase proper is nested within spikes of the mounting stand to effectively reduce an axial length of the vase.
17. A method of assembling the two-part floral display assembly of claim 10 , the method comprising configuring the vase in a first orientation by inserting a lower end of the vase proper into an upper generally cylindrical portion of the mounting stand and rotating the vase proper relative to the mounting stand.
18. The method of assembling the two-part floral display assembly of claim 17 , the method further comprising configuring the vase in a second, shipping orientation by nesting the vase proper at least partially within axially extending spikes of the mounting stand to effectively reduce a length of the vase.
