==Set up of the Arba Minim==
# The Sephardic custom is to put one Hadas and one Aravah on the left of the lulav, one Hadas in the middle together with the Lulav, and one Hadas and one Aravah on the right side. <Ref>Magan Avraham 651:4 quoting the Arizal writes that one should put one Hadas and one Aravah on the left of the lulav, one Hadas in the middle together with the Lulav, and one Hadas and one Aravah on the right side. The Shaar HaTzion 651:11 quotes the Pri Megadim who says that one shouldn’t follow that practice unless one is known for his piety. However, Yalkut Yosef (Moadim pg 160) writes that the Sephardic custom is to follow the Arizal. The Chazon Ovadyah (Sukkot pg 343) also quotes the Magan Avraham. </ref> However, the Ashkenazic custom is to set up the Hadasim to the right of the Lulav and the Aravot to the left. <ref>Mishna Brurah 651:12, Natai Gavriel (Arba Minim 40:4)</ref>
# One should make sure it up so that the Hadasim are above the Aravot. <Ref>Rama 651:1, Natai Gavriel 40:8, Chazon Ovadyah (Sukkot pg 343-4) </ref>
