Reviews
Please recommend complimentary edible flowers for this vase to display along side the same in a watermelon salad.
Actually this watermelon vase is intended for decorative use only, so any flowers in your arrangement or bouquet will be beautiful! You can compost the vase afterwards if you are so inclined. Or, if you are looking for an edible watermelon arrangement, check out this Watermelon Flowering Garden, which is more like a craft activity that ends up with edible watermelon “flowers” https://www.watermelon.org/carvings/flowering-garden/.
