These arrived with individual water bags attached to each stem to keep them hydrated during shipping. When they arrived, they were in great shape, none of them were wilted, but after you hydrate them, they'll be even more beautiful. Make sure to follow the instructions and cut the stems at an angle to increase the surface area of its water intake. I also cut about an inch vertically along the stem to facility the rehydration. If you notice any of them becoming wilted, don't worry! Just make another cut at the stem and soak the whole thing (stem and flower) under water for about 30min-1hour. I've been doing this for a week since my wedding and the flowers are still going strong. They love water so as long as you keep them hydrated, they will stay beautiful.

We ordered these for our wedding and saved hundreds doing our own flowers. We ordered 30 stems lavender hydrangeas, 60 stems white hydrangeas, 50 white roses and 75 lavender roses and had enough flowers for 16 centerpieces, petals for our flower girl, 6 bouquets and a cake topper with flowers to spare!! We received a ton of compliments on the flowers and the roses are still looking great after 2 weeks! The flowers arrived on a thursday before our Saturday afternoon wedding and were beautiful! Arranging your own flowers is definitely doable for mildly creative couples looking to save money!

I ordered these flowers as centerpieces for my aunts 60th birthday party. I was skeptical at first because I was unsure of the quality and worried that they wouldn't be delivered on time. I usually go to the local flower mart but new I would be pressed for time so I took a chance. I had them delivered one day in advance just in case I needed a back up plan. Needless to say I was not disappointed. Each hydrangea was packaged separately with its own supply of water. I am glad I got them early because it allowed them time to relax and open. Definitely recommend and would order them again.

These hydrangeas were AWESOME!! They arrived on time and in perfect condition - bright, white, big, and beautiful! Not a single broken stem or brown petal! And 5 days after they arrived, they’re still going strong! And did I mention that they’re HUGE and gorgeous?! (I’m going to include photos from arrival, to event, to now, the following week after they arrived)

These hydrangeas were some of the most beautiful I have ever seen. After being hydrated for a couple days (delivered on Thursday for Saturday wedding) they blossomed and were so full! I couldn't believe the quality of these, especially considering I paid half of what I would to a florist. The prep is super easy and took maybe 30 min (I had a couple people helping me). I would recommend these to anyone!! No one could believe I ordered them online--and I understand why because the quality was amazing.

Bought these for my wedding reception and they turned out perfect! I used blue hydrangea and white roses with them and these were very easy. I got them on Wednesday in the morning for a reception on Sat night. I was very worried about this whole situation because we have had a huge heat wave here in June in Iowa - like 90s most of the month. I had read they came in a refrigerated truck but that wasn't true but still no issue. These looked so great! Nice a full with beautiful petals. They do need time to open but I kept them in a dark cool room until the day before. This is how I cared for them: I got them at 10:30 in the morning on a wednesday for a saturday event. They come packaged tightly in bundles. I had tested these by buying them from Trader Joes and playing around with them so I was fairly comfortable and I also googled videos on how to care for them. Very important to ALWAYS trim them in water b/c if you don’t they release a coating that seals the tip after you trim and it won’t take in water. I also read that these would be dehydrated… I didn’t notice any issue with them they looked in great shape! When I first got them I took them out of their packaging, trimmed them (in water) and immediately put them in a bathtub filled with cold water (I ordered multiple bunches). I let them soak overnight then the next morning I rewrapped them in groupings of 6-7 with a big rubber band - I highly recommend this b/c it makes it much easy to handle them and store them upright. I trimmed them again with the tips in water and put them in water with flower food. I then stored them in a dark cool room – I covered the windows. On Friday I trimmed them and changed out the water and then put them back in the tub to soak for about 4 hours. I assembled them on Friday night and put what I could in a large fridge and they sat there overnight. Then sat morning I took them out and let them sit in our reception room… by Sat night they had completely opened and they looked GREAT!!! I would strongly recommend googling everything and working with drooping. I would also recommend testing them out but I had absolutely no issues and they still look great almost a week later.

Wow...these are fabulous. I purchased these hydrangeas for my daughters wedding and they were perfect in every way. Make sure to follow directions in the box. Keep them hydrated and these flowers should last one to two weeks. Could not be more pleased with all, not just hydrangeas, the flowers I ordered from Sam's. Exceptional value, quality and delivery service!

These flowers were absolutely beautiful. Suggestions ~~ 1. Definitely have delivery date 2 days prior to your event. 2. Definitely follow the enclosed instructions and leave in cool/dark place ~~ so that the hydrangeas open fully. We used these beautiful flowers for our son's Wedding Rehearsal Dinner Party and they were STUNNING!!!!

I bought these for our wedding bouquets and centerpieces. They arrived 3 days prior to the wedding and were carefully packaged with little bags of water rubber-banded to the stems and protective covers over the blooms. These were easy to take care of and looked beautiful with our white and pink flowers. I would definitely recommend these beautiful hydrangeas and would buy them again.

I ordered these hydrangeas & babies breath for our rustic wedding. We received them the Wednesday before the wedding & used buckets to prepare them as the instructions said. They were perfect even until after our wedding! For the DIY person & price these are worth every penny!
