How long does greenery last outside of water? | popular event greenery for wedding

So this is a video all about whether or not popular wedding greenery will last outside of water. I basically did a test over 48 hours to see whether these greens would be as vibrant and fresh looking, or whether they would seem dry and dead.

WHY DID I DO THIS VIDEO: I desperately looked for this info online when I was wedding planning last year so that I could DIY the greens going down my reception tables but ended up not finding the info, feeling worried, and going through the florist to set it all up. Folks - this cost me 6x what it would have if I DIYed it and based on my test I found that I DEFINITELY could have DIYed it. Sad. But the good news is I can share this info with you guys (the world), so hope you enjoy.
GREENERY I COVER: Israeli ruscus, salal, silver dollar eucalyptus, baby blue eucalyptus, Italian ruscus, variegated aspidistra, aspidistra elatior, asparagus leaf. Leather leaf and myrtle are also good!
WHERE DID I PURCHASE MY GREENERY: So I live in Ontario Canada and I got it from Forest of Flowers, which has several different locations. But try to find a flower wholesaler and shop around for good prices!

In water, Israeli Ruscus lasts WEEKS. I got a bouquet for our anniversary (IR and roses), 13 days ago. Threw out the roses already, but IR is still going. I transferred the IR to a vase with Statices (statices are from a 23 day old bouquet). So pretty! Israeli Ruscus has become my favorite greenery!

Seeded eucalyptus would be super pretty for a flower crown! 😍

[@julieweber5182]

what is your opinion on making DIY lengths of garland with the italian or israeli ruckus then adding in flowers and refrigerating- would you recommend refrigerating the flowers e.g. roses scattered throughout the garlands OR adding flowers with water picks on the stems to better preserve the flowers?

I have a question. Do you think I could buy all of my greenery 2 days before, make all the centerpieces and runners and just leave them inside in a little bit of water until the day of? I’m trying to DIY those pieces, I just don’t want to leave them out for 24 hours without water.

[@DIYDalia]

It would depend on the type of greenery but if it is a kind of greenery that would last out of water for 24 hours (like the ones I tested) then you could absolutely do what you planned and buy 2 days before keeping them in water. They would be even more fresh than leaving them out for sure. Try to leave them in a coolish room, away from direct sunlight and you should be good! If it isn't a type of green I tested then I'd recommend buying a stem or two and just testing it out yourself. But I think most types of greens should be fine.

DIY Dalia Thank you so much!

[@micaesquenaziglaun5928]

Can you do one about flowers that will keep?!

[@chitchatwithyashasvi7551]

Which app did you use to edit thumbnail

[@marthaligiasalazar5789]

What about the Mertle ?

[@veronicajohnson5516]

Thanks for the video. It was very informative. My only wish is that Lamb's Ear was included in the line-up of leaves. I have never created an arrangement without ensuring each leaf is in a water source. I appreciate knowing how the leaves will behave if they are not inserted in a soaked floral foam.

[@griselvega8655]

What about buying all the greenery months ahead and just preserve it with glycerin?

[@DIYDalia]

I've never thought of that! Now I've gotta try it out thanks! 💕

[@cinthiavela3344]

how do you do that im stressing out about the greenery to place on the center of the table , or wedding venue is 3 hrs away from home so im thinking how im going to do it ☹️
