greenery arrangement
Explanation:
I presume this is of cut greenery - the usual term when it is not a bouquet of flowers is to call it an "arrangement".

Bowl planter with evergreen plants (seasonal)


Explanation:
If we are talking about outdoor containers planted up with plants rather than cut flowers here, which the Blumenkisterl indicates we could be, then I would think this is a low bowl planter, as in the Google link below, planted up with evergreen plants or foliage plants. At this time of year I would guess they would be evergreens.

Sorry, the link didn't work out: Google "low bowl planters" to see some images of the kind of thing I'm referring to.
