I recently ordered a polished concrete vase and wanted a simple stem arrangement to put in it, I chose the white eucalyputs stems because I thought they would stand out more in the vase. The stems are filled with leaves, not sparse and cheap looking. The odd leaf is a little creased from being in he packaging, but if you manipulate them with your hand they will come back. I am really going to like having these out. I have a few vases and objects with painted twigs in them. With flowers now a luxury, these will last ages and give me something to show the vase off with.They do three colourways, green, grey and white. I think the white is the most neutral of the lot, will go with absolutely any decor, all vases colours. I am very happy with this item.
