The waving of the Four Species is a mitzvah from the Torah, which is performed every day of Sukkot except for Shabbat, either at home or in the Synagogue.+The Four Species are:

• Lulav (לולב) – a ripe, green, closed frond from a date palm tree
• Hadass (הדס) – boughs with leaves from the myrtle tree
• Aravah (ערבה) – branches with leaves from the willow tree
• Etrog (אתרוג) – the fruit of a citron tree

How to buy the Four Species+levels of perfection+All Etrog sets are carefully inspected to insure they are kosher. Like diamonds, Etrogim sets come in different price ranges reflecting the difference in perfection. It is considered appropriate to buy as good a set as you can afford.+Other members of the family+If you can afford it, it is also appropriate to buy a set for any other member of the family who wishes to have a set of their own.+The Basic Set+When you buy this basic set you are getting a set with the Etrog, Lulav, Hadassim and Aravot which allows you to fulfill the Mitzvah of the Four Species.
