Before you order
japanese euonymus foliage.

A foliage bunch may be sold by weight, stem count, or an informal grade. Convert the invoice unit to the usable stems in your recipe and record the assumption.

ASK YOUR SUPPLIERWhich Japanese euonymus selection are you supplying, and can you show the leaf pattern and specify usable branch length, tips per bunch, and trimming yield?

Put these details on the order

  • Wedding date and delivery window
  • Exact variety, commercial form, and color
  • Usable stem length and head or branch grade
  • Stems per bunch, price per bunch, and minimum order
  • Conditioning, storage, and expected opening stage
  • A client-approved substitution and a revised recipe

For fresh cut material, use clean containers and follow the supplier’s conditioning instructions. Keep foliage out of the vase water and test the finished sample before committing to a long display. Dried and preserved products need their own handling plan.
