I was wondering if plant cuttings from a pothos ivy can be shipped. I know plants can be sent, but can cuttings? I've never sent plants, and I haven't the slightest idea how. Can someone give me some basic rules. I read the trading primer, but I think it's written with the assuption that a person already knows what he/she's doing. I have nothing now for trade, but I thought maybe in the future I might want to get into the trading part of the site, but I need to know how, so I don't get anyone angry with me.

Cuttings are easy to send. Just wrap the cut end in damp(not wet, just damp) papertowel, wrap that in saran wrap or a baggie. I find it best to then wrap that in newspaper. You can wrap a few of the cuttings together in one newspaper, no need for a sheet for every cutting.
Some cuttings( Jade, some Euphobias,Epiphyllums) actually need calloused over before planting, they're even easier , just wrap in newspaper!
