I bought one order of this to augment the centerpieces for my daughter's wedding (we gathered local salal and cut other greens out of my yard). Well, the shipment didn't arrive on time (was a day late), and our arrangements were already made up. When this order arrived, I was very sad it hadn't been a timely shipment, because this stuff is GORGEOUS! We ended up using it as "table greens" and I even put several bunches in a large vase - with nothing else - and used that as an "arrangement" in a corner and even got complements on that! We ended up throwing much of this away (sadly - what a costly waste), but at the last minute, I decided to keep 3-4 bunches to take home. It's been almost 3 weeks and the stems still look like they were just cut except for teeny tiny itty bitty yellowed leaf tips on a few of the stems. Incredible lasting power!! So, overall, I would recommend purchase - absolutely - but have them delivered slightly earlier that desired in case your shipment gets messed up like mine. Since these last and last, you will not regret the decision to receive them early! This would have been a 5-star rating if the shipping was more reliable.

I buy this pack of ruscus very frequently and I have NEVER been disappointed. If you’re looking for a green you can depend on to be healthy, bright green, and beautiful, this is the one. I’ve had them last longer than two weeks and still look like the day I received them. Leaves are never yellow, never brown. Always such a beautiful bright green! And believe me 200 stems is PLENTY for whatever your needs are. I’ve always had leftover. The photo I attached is how they looked two weeks after receiving, having traveled to an event, sat outside, sat in a car all night and then sat in my garage for a week. ILOVEYOURUSCUS! :)

Ordered these for my daughter's wedding reception. We had these delivered 3 days before the event and put them in fresh water. We decorated day before the event and the stems were very fresh for the reception... they did not wilt at all after being out of water for 24 hours!!! Highly recommend!!!

Received 1 order of Israeli Ruscus the Thursday before my daughters wedding. Stems arrived in perfect condition and were well packed. I immediately put the stems in water overnight. The next day we began decorating the tables with the stems so they were out of water for several days - some up to a week. They still looked as fresh as the day they arrived. I actually had them in my house for 2 weeks after the wedding and they continued to look fantastic. I highly recommend this product - considering the reasonable price and the amount of stems you won't find anything better.

Beautiful color, long lasting even in extreme heat and humidity. So glad I bought these for my daughter's wedding. I couldn't get my hands on eucalyptus and bought these instead. I am so glad that I did!! Eucalyptus would not stand up like these did. I recommended these to our venue and their future brides/weddings. These greens were stunning on the tables. They put a classy touch to the table settings.

I have used Sam's several times to do flowers for various events. Thus greenery did not disappointment. Arrived exactly when it was scheduled to, and was absolutely beautiful! One entire box of ruscus and one box of cupped seedless eucalyptus was used for 17 round tables, 3- 8 ft. end to end rectangular tables, and a few more random places. I'm including pics-candles and greenery made for simply elegant! Sorry the photos are sideways:(

I purchased two orders of this greenery for my wedding, and I was so impressed! With 400 stems, I was able to make a 40 foot overlapping garland, 3 10 foot overlapping garlands, 30 wreaths for tables (about a 12-inch diameter), 8 wreaths for cocktail tables (about a 10-inch diameter), wrapped a single layer around a 3-tier cake, 8 full vases for my rehearsal dinner and we still had extra!!! For the garlands and the wreaths I overlapped about a third of the way down on each stem and created a circle or just kept going and use waterproof floral tape. While it took a bit to complete these, it was totally worth it! Upon delivery, I put stems in a large tub with a little water, and allowed them to soak for 4-ish hours. I just stopped by my mother-in-laws house yesterday, and she still has some in vases, and they look fantastic (16 days after arrival). Great quality!

These are gorgeous! Today is July 6th the wedding was June 6th. I have a vase full today and they are just as green as the day they arrived June 4th. Change water periodically

The Israeli ruscus are absolutely beautiful! They made our decorations look perfect and elegant. It’s a week after the event and they still look fresh and beautiful.

Purchased this to decorate for a wedding - 18 tables total plus put in 4 bridesmaid bouquets. More than enough. Was excellent product. Still have some in a vase almost 2 weeks later and looks fantastic!
