Floral "frog"

Yep, absolutely. They come in several sizes, this would be for a narrow vase. You plunk it into the bottom of a vase, and stick the flower stems onto/between the prongs to keep them upright. I still use my grandmother's. They also had glass ones - holes, not prongs, but I like the prongs better - the flower stems really stay put. (This is for readers who don't want to google 'floral frog', tho if you do, you can see some cool repurposing of the glass ones, I like the marble display idea!)
