Looking for lemon vase decor ideas with a little something extra? Think yellow tulips, white flowers and lemon slices peeking through clear vases.
There’s plenty to choose from here, including a few bowl and tray arrangements if you’d rather keep the fruit beside your flowers.
You can keep things simple with a little jar or go all out with tall flowering branches. I especially love the yellow lemons next to blue-and-white patterns.
Pick your favorite combination and start there.
Lemon arrangements worth saving
whole lemons and airy flowers
We’re starting off strong with this gorgeous mix of pale yellow flowers and greenery. I love how the whole lemons fill the clear vase right up to the stems.

Let a few taller stems reach above the rest if you want to follow this loose, leafy arrangement.
yellow tulips and white blooms
How cute is this yellow and white combination? The tulips sit above broad green leaves, with big lemon rounds showing through the short vase.
Try this one if you want the flowers and the fruit to get equal attention. That large slice facing the front is my favorite detail.
lemon branches in black
Don’t want to fill a clear vase with fruit? No problem!
Try lemon-covered branches in a tall black vase instead. I love the narrow ridges on this one and the branches reaching out to either side.
daisies in little jars
I am obsessed with these little daisy arrangements. They’re so cute together, especially with the lemon slices showing through both jars.
Tie green ribbon around one jar and twine around the other to follow this look. They don’t have to match exactly.
lemons around candle holders
Want a centerpiece without flowers? This one uses lemons and leafy sprigs around clear holders with cream pillar candles.
The long tray sits right down the middle of a striped runner.
This is a tray arrangement rather than a lemon-filled vase. Keep the same low layout if you’d rather spread your decorations along the table.
tall cylinders and yellow stems
If you are looking for a true eye-catcher, then this one is for you. Tall clear cylinders hold stacks of whole lemons, yellow flowers and leafy stems.
I love the different heights here. Try grouping your vases on a broad landing or beside a console, keeping the walkway clear.
a black bowl beside branches
This is one of my favorite ways to keep the lemons separate from the flowers. A black pedestal bowl holds the fruit beside a pale, speckled vase filled with leafy branches.
The matching black board underneath is such a pretty finishing touch. You could try the same grouping on your kitchen island.
lemons under a pointed lid
Don’t want to add flowers or branches? Simply try a clear lidded container packed with whole lemons.
The taller cylinder of green limes behind it makes the yellow look even brighter.
I’d keep these two together rather than mixing both fruits into one container.
sunflowers and lemon rounds
The sunflower fans are going to love this! Big yellow blooms sit above a tall jar lined with lemon slices.
Those dark flower centers look so pretty against all the yellow.
Choose a plain jar if you want the same look. There’s already plenty going on without a bow or patterned vase.
white hydrangeas on a pedestal
This hydrangea arrangement may just be my favorite one so far. I love the rounded white flower heads above all those overlapping lemon slices.
The clear pedestal base makes this a little different from a plain cylinder. Keep a few broad green leaves around the rim to follow the arrangement.
a lemon ring in progress
Here’s a different idea, though it isn’t a finished vase arrangement. Whole lemons form a ring around a raised white base, with skewers crossing through the open center.
The construction is still visible in this photo. Save it as inspiration for the circular shape rather than a complete how-to.
citrus halves with single flowers
How adorable are these little citrus flower holders? Lemon, lime and grapefruit halves sit cut-side up, each with a slender flower stem rising from the center.
This is a vase-free idea if you want something a little different. I especially love the pink flowers beside the yellow rose.
whole lemons and white hydrangeas
This is a similar white flower combination to the one above, but the whole lemons give it a different look. The large rounded jar is packed with fruit beneath a full bunch of white hydrangeas.
A scalloped bowl of lemons and limes sits alongside it. Add a separate fruit bowl if you want to carry the yellow across your counter.
lemon branches on a small tray
I love this little bottle arrangement with its leafy lemon branches. The wrapped neck and loose lemons on the handled tray are just too cute together.
Try keeping the stems visible through the bottle instead of filling the bottom with more fruit.
blue patterns and yellow flowers
If you love blue-and-white decor, this one is for you. A bowl piled with lemons sits in front of patterned vases, with tall yellow flowering branches on one side and a shorter bunch of daffodils on the other.
There’s a lot to love here, but that lemon-filled bowl is my favorite part.
yellow flowers and a lacy band
How sweet is this little vase? Yellow daisy-like flowers sit above tiny white blooms, with lemon slices running down the clear cylinder.
Don’t forget the yellow lacy band around the top if you want to follow this version. It’s a pretty detail without a big bow.
a lemon tucked among roses
I am obsessed with the pale blue and yellow in this arrangement. The lemon sits right among the roses and tiny white daisies instead of down inside the vase.
Save this one if you prefer a small bouquet with lots of different flowers. Those long leafy stems on the right are lovely too.
lemon bowls down the table
Want to go all out with blue and yellow? This outdoor table has patterned bowls full of lemons, leafy centerpieces and yellow napkins beside blue plates.
The lemons stay in bowls rather than vases here. For a smaller version, try one fruit bowl beside one leafy arrangement and leave room for your place settings.

pink bows and yellow blooms
These little jar arrangements are so cute together. I love the pink flowers mixed with yellow blooms and tiny white sprigs.
Each jar has lemon slices inside and a pink ribbon around the neck. Try spacing a few along your table instead of using one large centerpiece.
a tall vase with white sprays
Last but definitely not least, we have this gorgeous tall arrangement. I am in love with the white flowers reaching above the yellow roses and trailing greenery.

The narrow square vase has lemon slices showing from top to bottom. Choose this shape if you like straight sides rather than the round jars and cylinders.
