Has anyone ever successfully sent a cutting through the mail? I remember trying when I was in college and none of them made it safely. I'm just wondering about the heat (it's almost July) and how you were planning on packaging them. I haven't signed up yet because I'm not convinced it's doable.

Good Question...

I am planning on sending them in a tight ziploc and a drenched paper towel??? Anyone else have ideas???

I have been sending plants that I have sold on Ebay.

I usually dig them up on the same day I am sending. Wrap them in wet towles, and put a plastic bag over them to hold in the moisture.

These all have roots already so I dont know how cuttings would work.

I do send mine priority mail and this usually only takes 2 days.

I think it starts out at $4.20 for a small light box.

zip loc bags sound like a good idea for small cuttings/plants.
