Delivery was scheduled to arrive on Wednesday, July 3rd for an event scheduled for 2 pm on Friday, July 5th. Was not delivered until 3:22pm on July 5th. Order was placed on June 14.

Came from Italy...every stem was perfect, dark green and very hardy. The photo shows Israeli ruscus but the Italian ruscus is daintier with slimmer leaves. Wished I had ordered more, I used every stem!

It was beautiful and full and more than we needed for the wedding and wouldn’t hesitate to order again. It also had beautiful orange berries on some of the branches which was a very nice bonus for color.

I bought this for my son’s wedding rehearsal dinner. It was great! I loved that it would lay on the table in the afternoon while setting up and didn’t wilt at all before the event. It also looks great in other arrangements or by itself. I would definitely buy again sir a similar occasion!

The Italian Ruscus was perfect. Healthy dark green and long lasting. It's really very beautiful. We used it for the church doors (didn't wilt) and in vases as well. It did arrive one day late, for some reason, but it wasn't a problem. The other greens we order arrived the day before, on time. I would most definitely order all these greens again, especially the Italian Ruscus. (The Israeli Ruscus is nice too, but not as delicate as the Italian Ruscus.)

Grouped with a selection of 2 other greenery varieties, these stems help make up a beautiful center display for our round wedding reception tables. Grouped with votives, pinecones and Aspen segments, the center pieces were perfectly lovely. We had plenty with which to decorate 14 round 8-toppers. These stems were still fresh-looking several days after the wedding.

I have used these twice now for two weddings, and both times have been so impressed with the freshness and beauty of these! My most recent order I placed weeks in advance of the event. I was nervous I'd be "forgotten". But they arrived exactly when I asked them to be. Because they are so fresh upon arrival - they will go a couple to three weeks looking fresh if they are kept in a cool area.

Received my Italian Ruscus on schedule! It was beautiful! The floral arrangements I made up with the flowers and Ruscus From Sam’s was absolutely stunning!! And they lasted four days! I would definitely order again!! From Sam’s was absolutely stunning!! And they lasted four days! I would definitely order again!!

So fresh and beautiful!! Arrived on Thursday, cut stems at an angle and left in water until Saturday morning. We then took them out of the water and decorated for the wedding and they still looked great Sunday morning when we came to clean up. Would definitely purchase again!!

Fresh, beautful and abundant! Used to make floral arrangements for wedding - had so much that we even had some left over to use after the wedding. Don't hesitate to purchase! Received 3 days before the wedding and were more than fresh for the wedding arrangements - lasted 2 full weeks!
