Update : It’s been a few days now and I wanted to change the pictures on my review because I realize I didn’t fluff up the leaves on the stems when I got them like it shows in the video. My original photos did not do the product justice. My eucalyptus bundle which I have in the shower as well as in decorative watering can look a lot better now so I wanted update my photos. I bought a bundle of these for my sister as well and she is happy with hers. I think next time I will ruffle the leaves and lay them out on my a rack for a day so they can recover from travelling in a box before I hang them in my shower, etc. Note: after looking at other reviews a little more, some of my stems were the cream coloured eucalyptus like in the advertisement while others were a deeper green. I’m not picky about the colour but if you are this may bother you. Also, I wish they were packaged differently because the 30 stems were crammed into a small box and it was very difficult to take the elastics off the stems while trying not to damage them. Some of the leaves did come with a white residue and I don’t know if that is mildew because I could wipe it off. Maybe it’s residue from moisture in the box? The seller does mention that in the card that comes with the package. I was worried they would smell moldy, but they smell lovely. The ones I put in my shower. I used a wine bottle to roll them to get the oils to come out of the leaves so they would smell even more lovely in the shower. This definitely worked. I did not do this for the leaves in the decorative watering can. You do get a good amount of and I would likely use four or five stems in a smaller vase because they’re pretty cramped and my watering can vase. Also, some of my leaves are brown at the base where I tied the twine. I don’t love that but I make sure to flip over my bundle in the shower every few days. I’m still keeping my five star review because of how fast the item arrived and how many stems I received for $23 and something after tax. I’m not too familiar with how much 30 stems of eucalyptus costs from a local flower shop, etc.. considering I had very little damage to the stems, and only a couple brown leaves, I remain happy with my purchase. Also, because they are preserved they should last months rather than 2-4 weeks. I will update my review if they don’t last very long. Some reviews said the odour was bad. Mine smell amazing. And after several hot showers, I have not noticed any green liquid from the plant on my tub nor staining my tub yet. I have lately missed them once since getting them because online it says that can be beneficial….. just don’t soak the leaves obviously. This is my first time buying eucalyptus let alone online. My order arrived within 24 hours. It came securely, packaged in a rectangular personalized box. It included instructions, etc.. A very personalized touch, which I appreciated. The seller is very detailed orientated. For the price I received a significant bundle of eucalyptus leaves / branches. Due to transport a few stems were damaged and appeared to have mildew on them, which is part of buying plants that are shipped according to the card that came with the package. The majority of the stems / leaves were in great condition. They smell amazing! Either way I am very happy with my purchase. I bought them primarily to hang in my shower but because I received so many you can put them in vases in your bathroom or at your house. I bought them primarily from my shower so depending on how well they last, I will likely buy them again from the seller. I did buy a bundle for my sister which she is happy with, but she hasn’t sent me any photos so I can’t comment on the condition. I would recommend this seller. I will update my review again if I have any issues with the product.
