To find the unit rate of flowers per vase, you divide the total number of flowers by the total number of vases.

Gloria has 112 flowers and 14 vases:

\[ \text{Unit rate} = \frac{\text{Total flowers}}{\text{Total vases}} = \frac{112 \text{ flowers}}{14 \text{ vases}} = 8 \text{ flowers per vase} \]

So, the unit rate is 8 flowers per vase.
