Abstract: A lid for a vase including a plate having a top and a bottom extending about a longitudinal axis. An opening extends between the top and the bottom at the longitudinal axis. The lid includes a plurality of movable flaps positioned on the top over the opening. The flaps are movable between a closed position in which the flaps are immediately adjacent one another to limit ingress through the opening to an open position in which the flaps are positioned in the opening to allow an object such as a stem of an artificial flower arrangement to be positioned in the opening. A skirt extends from the bottom about the longitudinal axis.
