A vase including sidewalls； an open upper end； a vase bottom； and at least one water-receiving compartment. The water receiving compartment is substantially located proximal to the vase bottom, configured to hold water, and includes at least one flower support base including at least one aperture which is spaced apart from the vase bottom. The at least one aperture is configured to allow water to pass there-through and configured or disposed to prevent stems of the flowers to pass through. As a result, when in use, flowers in the vase are prevented from consuming the water in the compartment, while water held in the receiving compartment provides weight to stabilize the vase.
