Agave. Or, the byproduct of agave. With Ice. And lime. Some triple sec to top it off

I wouldnt.

Air plants, prop vase or a hanging vase with hemp rope or twine for lighter plants.

If there's no drainage holes then it might be good for some propagations

how stable will that be w/ it filled and a plant that might grow unevenly out of it ? might be a potential center of gravity problem in your future ;)

Is it a vase or a taper candle holder flipped upside down?

That’s a hat. Jk idk about what flowers tho

Air plants! Tillandsia are perfect for these kinds of things.

I would turn it upside down and challenge someone to a game of Sorry!

This is not a vase. This is a hat indicating that you’re DEVO.

If you want to use that I'd get a nice looking block of wood and drill a hole that'll fit that vase. Something to stabilize it. That thing looks really too heavy and likely to tip over.

That is practically designed to fall over.

Unless it was in some kind of base that prevented tipping I would not set it that way.

Artificial plants

Would that actually even support plants? It looks like it would tip over?

I would not use this for plants.

I would knock that over immediately

White hydrangea so it looks like an ice cream cone.

I realized what group I’m in. I’d use it purely decoratively for fresh cut flowers, not for planting anything.

I just tried to Google Lens this item, but only similarly shaped drinking glasses with a base came up. If this item is a vase, I imagine it's missing a metal structure to hold it from the widest part and it's meant to be a hanging vase. Otherwise, the weight of water, soil, the plant wouldn't hold itself up properly.

That's a vase I would use for displaying cool rocks or just as a decoration on it's own. Given there's no drainage, at best I might put a bouquet or otherwise cut flowers into it. However, I have a cat so that'd just be a disaster waiting to happen lol

Neither. Turn it upside down and use it as a bracelet/jewelry tree

With the risk of revealing my age, that is a wonky Devo hat.

With support and a drainage hole, maybe for lithops as they have long ass tap roots. But that's a stretch.

Id make it into a hanging vase using macrame. Otherwise its too much of a spill issue

Crack that whip Give the past a slip Step on a crack Break your mama's back

When a problem comes along You must whip it Before the cream sits out too long You must whip it When something's going wrong You must whip it

Now whip it Into shape Shape it up Get straight Go forward Move ahead Try to detect it It's not too late To whip it Whip it good

When a good time turns around You must whip it You will never live it down Unless you whip it No one gets away

Are you sure that's not an upside down candle stick?

Air plants. Also second the vote for agave with lime and a salt rim, tho.

I wouldn't

Tbh I would turn that into a snack bowl.

Make a hanger for it so you don't have to worry about it tipping over and use it as a propagation station

Isn't that a Dva cup?

None cuz I'd tip it over!

You are supposed to force bloom bulbs in that glass.

Hey, you have my Devo hat, damn I just dated myself.

EDIT: Apparently, I wasn’t the only one lol.

This looks like some kind of insulation cap from a power line. Interesting.

you could do any sort of starter hydropoinc plant in there from vegetables to plants. its not an ideal shape but it should work during most juvenile stages

Air plants, propagations, or possibly a starter plant still in its nursery pot that you could set in their temporarily. I'd just be concerned about the tipping factor.

I would use it for r/semihydro

Like everyone else, balancing is an issue but if you really wanna use it and be able to see it why not try to find some clear glass that it can nestle into and sit perfectly. Then I'd fill the bottom with a lot of perlite to be a drainage layer and put something that won't get super big, maybe a succulent with colors that match it.

I would use it for ikebana but I wouldn’t plant a houseplant in it.

If I'm putting ANYTHING in that I'm coming up with a good way to keep it stable first.
3dprint/wood/macrame... something

Hang it with a macrame that can hug the top rung and let the light shine through it.

I'd drink tequila in that thing.

Would be awesome in a macrame hanger! I'd love it!

I would personally put a sno-cone or a margarita

Broccoli

That’s a hat, silly! A silly hat!

with a hanger and pothos

A tealight candle maybe. Unless you have pets. Certainly not soil or water unless it's a hanging pot.

Cut calla lilies

I would use it as an adapter for a tower vase arrangement

I don’t think this is a vase, and more of a candle holder

Caudiciforms, Haworthia

Most people are saying it’s going to fall over, I’m saying find another clear glass to nestle it into. It’ll be less likely to fall over.

That’s going to dump over.

Has it got a stand or hanger or something?

Tip over concern is too large to use as a vase... feels like you got it upside down

I'd get a rechargeable led light and put that suckered on top like a weird lampshade

If there would be a way you could make it more stable maybe adding something to it then I would but anything with shallower roots

its giving me anxiety

Maybe ONLY some dried baby breath.

Hang with macrame if you’re gonna use for plants, too much of a tip hazard otherwise

I think it’s upside down and it’s for incense

I would prop coleus in it. They are very easy to prop and I do this so my coleus’ are ready for planting at our second home after the snow melts. I take cuttings in Autumn and have new big coleus’ by spring!

Do this with it. False drainage setup

i'd put purple heart or transcandentia in it

This thing looks like it’s going to tip over if someone sneezes. There are some really easy hanging basket macrame tutorials on YouTube, and you could easily turn this into a hanging plant holder. Much more stable. I made one recently using regular yarn I had lying around.

Bamboo would be lovely in this..perfect darkness for the roots!

OMG that's definitely manganese and will glow bright green under UV!

Are we sure it is for plants... and not, other places?

Maybe a cool pen/marker storage?
