Not quite sure


If one of the ones I have is the Georgia Peach, or not. I looked it up online, and I think it is. I just ran out and took a pic for you.

Hi! Sorry about the delay. I was on a much needed break from the hubby and kids!! Back to reality now. I'd be happy to share this with you. I'm a rookie, though, so I'm not sure how to ship. Can you explain it to me??

shipping plants


I usually take the cutting or plant with roots & wrap the plant roots if it has roots in wet(damp) newspaper or paper towel, then put the wet paper in plastic wrap or sandwich baggie and secure it a little bit. Then put it in bubble wrap & put in large brown envelope or if its a large amount going 2 one person put in a box & bubble wrap or dry newspaper, and tape it up,address it, take to post office & mail.works great.

Sounds good, Daisies.

For more ideas, there are some great shipping tips in a Plant Swap thread in the Plant & Seed exchange forum:

Thanks


That is very useful information. I would have never thought to put it in a bubble wrap bag. That's a great idea, and I'm sure it saves on shipping!
