Background

After the release of Petals for Armor: Self-Serenades in December 2020, which includes a demo for "Find Me Here", Williams's website started redirecting to the Flowers for Vases webpage playing 15-second demo tracks of the project songs on January 22, 2021. On January 29, she started sending gifts to fans, including body parts of a doll with the note "Plant Me", and a special package including a Sanctuary candle and a CD with "My Limb", asking for fans to leak the song.[8][9]

On February 4, Williams announced Flowers for Vases / Descansos via social media a day before its release, including the album's credits, also explaining that the album serves as a prequel or "detour" from her first studio album Petals for Armor.[7][10]
