Vase life also varies across plant species and cultivars. Cut flowers with a short vase life, of less than 5 days, include dahlias, irises, daffodils, and delphinium; flowers with a medium vase life (6 to 14 days) include marigolds, snapdragons, orchids, and roses; and flowers with a long vase life (2 to 4 weeks) include tulips, carnations, and ...

Callyspongia (Cladochalina) aculeata, commonly known as the branching vase sponge is a species of sea sponge in the family Callyspongiidae. [1] Poriferans are typically characterized by ostia, pores that filter out plankton, with an osculum as the opening which water leaves through, and choanocytes trap food particles.
The 100 species with longest life-spans recorded and verified [1] This is a list of the longest-living biological organisms: the individual(s) (or in some instances, clones) of a species with the longest natural maximum life spans. For a given species, such a designation may include:
This current article is a horticulture stub. Similar and expanded coverage of vase life (postharvest life) of cut flowers has been added to the Cut flower article. In line references will be added in the next few days. In my understanding of cut flowers and the literature, vase life is best handled with cut flowers rather than separately.
Vases generally share a similar shape. The foot or the base may be bulbous, flat, carinate, [1] or another shape. The body forms the main portion of the piece. Some vases have a shoulder, where the body curves inward, a neck, which gives height, and a lip, where the vase flares back out at the top. Some vases are also given handles.
Telomerase is expressed by most vertebrates during embryonic stages but is generally absent from adult stages of life. [25] However, unlike vertebrates, lobsters express telomerase as adults through most tissue, which has been suggested to be related to their longevity. [26] [27] [28] Contrary to popular belief, lobsters are not immortal.

The manufacturers aimed to make products which would be enjoyed beyond the life span of the biscuits themselves. Tins shaped like actual objects began to be made in the late 1890s.
