CARE AND PREPARATION – ITALIAN RUSCUS
DIY Bulk Flower Guide

Italian ruscus is a durable greenery that requires minimal preparation and offers excellent longevity both in and out of water. Please follow these steps carefully upon receiving your stems:

Unpack immediately. Remove the stems from the box as soon as they arrive.
Remove outer packaging. Take off all outer packaging and protective sleeves.
Remove lower leaves if needed. Strip off any foliage that would sit below the water line to keep the water clean.
Prepare clean water. Fill a clean bucket or vase with fresh water. Floral food is optional, as greenery typically does not show a noticeable benefit.
Trim the stems. Cut approximately 1–2 inches off the stems at an angle using sharp floral shears or a sharp knife.
Hydrate properly. Place stems into water and keep them in a cool area, away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
Excellent out-of-water performance. Italian ruscus holds very well in arrangements that are not in water, making it ideal for installations, arches, and event work.
Very durable greenery. Known for its long-lasting structure and appearance, even with extended use.
Daily care. Change the water occasionally and re-cut stems as needed to maintain freshness.
