What is the best source for purchasing preserved topiary . . . ?

I have several ceramic planters, containers, pots, etc. and 2.5 acres of branches to choose from and a glue gun. Just need the greenery. My hope is to create a vignette less costly than what home décor stores offer. While scouring the internet for preserved greenery, they often disappoint when received, hence returned. I am picky. I believe if I am putting forth the effort it should be done correctly, at least in my world. I want to proudly say I created that. Any help or advice is appreciated. Yes, I know, stop being so anal. Not gonna' happen! It is in my genes. Thank you to everyone who shares their creativity. You are all brilliant and make this world a better place.

    I would rather use plastic greenery, with seasonal fresh flowers and greenery inserted. Be selective, but plastic can be set into styrofoam, attached to real branches, and set outside your front door and patio, as well as inside your home. ☺️
