Abstract: A flexible grid for use in guiding a person to arrange flowers, and the like, includes a number of openings formed therein by woven-together fluffy fabric-coated, flexible wires. The flexible grid may be supported on, as by being bent around, or in an open top of a container to enable a number of different size floral stems to be inserted and frictionally held in the openings. The floral stems and the flexible grid may be removed as a unit from the open top of the container to enable the lower ends of the floral stems to be snipped for better water absorption, or to add water to the container.
