There is some tips to remerber you how to packag the plants.
Some have suggested keeping track of trades in a notebook, in case either trader would have computer problems.
Plan to ship on Monday or Tuesday so the package doesn't get stuck in the Post Office on the weekend. Priority mail takes three days.
Either dig the plant the day before you ship it and soak the roots in water overnight,or leave it in the soil until you are ready to pack it, but thoroughly soak the soil around it the day before.
1.Try to include plenty of roots on the plants that you send.
2.Gently rinse most of the soil from the roots.Wrap the roots in a moist paper[paper?:paper sample maker cutting machine] towel, wet but not dripping.
3.Put the roots and the damp paper towel (but not the leaves) into a plastic[plastic?:Plastic sample cutting machine] bag[bag?:bag paper pattern sample cutting machine] and wrap the bag snugly around the stems with a bag tie, to seal the water in. Be careful not to crush the stems!
Keep the package cool until you mail it. Don't let it sit in the sun in your car! It's a good idea to notify the recipient once you've mailed the package, and ask them to let you know if it arrived safely, and the condition of the plants.
