🌿 Important Ordering Note (5-7 Days)

Because we source our bulk greenery fresh for your specific order, we kindly ask that you place your order at least 5 to 7 days in advance of your event or required date. This allows us to ensure availability and gives you the necessary time to let the stems drink up properly before you begin your designs.

✂️ DIY Preparation Required: Raw Stems

To offer you the best bulk pricing, our Israeli Ruscus stems are sold unconditioned. This means they come directly from the field and have not been prepared for a vase. You will need to personally perform the conditioning steps below upon arrival to ensure they remain vibrant and last throughout your event.

🌱 Easy Conditioning & Care Guide:

Give your stems a little love, and they will reward you with beauty!

1. Fresh Cut: Gently unpack your stems. Using sharp, clean floral shears, give each stem a fresh angled cut about 1–2 cm from the bottom. This helps them drink more water!

2. Strip Lower Leaves: This is a crucial step! Remove all leaves from the lower 1/3 to 1/2 of each stem. You want to make sure no leaves will be sitting in the water, as this prevents harmful bacteria from growing.

3. Drink Up: Place your trimmed stems immediately into a clean bucket filled with fresh, cool water. Tip: Using a commercial floral preservative really helps boost their longevity.

4. Hydrate & Store: Let your stems rest and hydrate in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight for at least 12–24 hours before designing. Change the water and give them a fresh angled cut every 2–3 days to keep them happy.
