Oh Yeah, DUH!
Hope I made sense last night in packing...I was tired. Those skewers, or a stick in pot the height of box will keep the plant in place when turned upside down. One skewer will break easily, so tape 5-6 together & trim the pointy ends off.
Like I said, old boxes or ho-made ones are good & then I use brown paper bags to wrap it if there is a lot of writing on them. You know, I really don't need any more plants LOL, but I'd like just one eucalyptus - sounds interesting. I will PM you.
My Bay trees are the most valuable plants I have - at least to me. I have so many other things that you'd like too (some we talked about before). Let me know what else you'd like....
The white VERY thorny rose vine (cut back soon), purple-blue water Iris seeds, Variegated purple shoo-fly seeds, blue Balloon flower &/or seeds, Bed of Nails &/or seeds, Caster Bean ( nice crimson colored small annual tree) seeds, & I'll think of more. The last 2 are really cool plants- interesting. OK, I'll shut up now & PM you.

Patty,
How do you like this plant?? It is needing to be potted up but is the only one in a plastic pot the rest are clay pots that I'd be afraid would break in route...


I have it sitting here by me now.. it has my area very good smelling..

Pm me with addy to send to if you like it.... or e-mail me..
I do have bigger ones.. but I'm hesitant in sending the breakable clay pot.. would be a nasty mess if it broke on the way.. I'd probably transfer to a large plastic cup or something first...

OH NO clay pots hon! USPS throw all pkgs around & it will break. Just put it in a 16oz plastic cup if it'll fit. Pack balls of newspaper around it & of course that stick in cup or pot.
Nice looking plant!
OK, now I'll PM you LOL
