Hello,
The vase is not Chinese. As the picture is a bit small to see it clearly, it is difficult to be sure, but the overall appearance and decoration colors rather point to a Japanese item.
Also, the mark seems to be Japanese. It seems to be either a place name or family name, but the second character isn't written clearly.
As I do not have any knowledge with Japanese porcelain, I would suggest you try asianart com. Some forum members there have knowledge about Japanese art and ceramics.
