Packing and Shipping AV's and Gessies

Northern California, CA(Zone 9a)

I knew there was a website with visuals, just couldn't remember very well where it was. Good 'How To' instructions for packing/shipping.

That's a good link Thanks for sharing it ! On the next page the leaf one is good also ! Like it say what ever method you use and there are as many methods of packaging as there are methods of growing Av's ..make sure the dirt stays in the pots, foliage protected and nothing in the box moves ....Each time I package I try to do it better always hoping the plants/leaves will arrive safe in good condition even when the Postal service is slow . I think it's remarkable you can ship plants all over the world ! Years ago I would never thought you could do this. Neighbors, friends, family are always amazed that you can ship a beautiful African violet plant ! It's really something everyone always thinks it's amazing that they can be grown with such ease !
