Centre de table Glad Tidings Syosset NY

Not every table needs bows, ribbon, and a dozen extra details. We built this christmas flower design around a single candle and a simple ring of carnations and pine cones, for customers who want the holidays to look calm instead of busy.

This is the plainest Christmas flower arrangement in our Glad Tidings line, so here's what's actually in it, how the candle works, and when it can arrive.

This Christmas Flower Design: Carnations, Pine Cones, and One Candle: Carnations and pine cones, the only flowers in this design, circle a single red candle, tucked into holiday greens. It's a shorter ingredient list than our Deluxe or Premium versions, a clean look on purpose.

Red and Green, Nothing Extra: Red carnations and the candle carry a traditional red and green combination here, set against holiday greens with no bows or metallics competing for attention. Ask for an all-white version of the flowers instead and our designers can build it that way.

Standard, Deluxe, and Premium: Moving up in size mostly means more flowers and greens around the same single candle, one of our simpler Christmas centerpieces at any size. Standard suits a smaller table, Premium a longer one, without feeling like a different design.

A Fit for a Simpler Holiday Table: This one works well anywhere you want a single candle doing the visual work, a console table, a mantel, a smaller dinner setting. It's also the perfect gift for loved ones who prefer understated christmas decor and simple flowers over anything elaborate.

When This Christmas Flower Centerpiece Arrives: Ask for it by 2 PM in the recipient's time zone, or noon on Sundays, and there's a good chance the flowers arrive the same day, no matter where in the country you're sending it. Further out, it still gets there by way of a partner florist in our network.

• Add fresh water as soon as it arrives and trim the wick before first use.
• Top off the water every couple of days, keep the flowers and flames apart, and this centerpiece, like our other floral arrangements, should hold up for about a week.

• Carnations hold up well through the season, but if one becomes unavailable, our designers substitute comparable flowers.
• The candle and pine cones stay the same.

Is the red candle in this christmas flower centerpiece a real wax candle?

Yes, it's a real candle set securely in the greenery. Trim the wick and keep it clear of the pine cones and carnations, never leaving it burning unattended.

How is this christmas flower centerpiece different from the Deluxe or Premium Glad Tidings versions?

This is the simplest of the three, one candle and a ring of carnations, with fewer flowers overall than the Deluxe or Premium versions. If you want more fragrance or more formal trim for the holiday season, those are built for that instead.
