Propagation Advice

Shipping Advice

Pay attention to the weather. Make sure to prepare for cold or heat waves. Ice packs and hand warmer packets can be used when packaged appropriately.
Old Tupperware is very versatile and useful for shipping with wet paper towels.
Some seeds have a short viability, so it makes sense to ship them in slightly moist growth medium (such as sand or coconut coir) so that they sprout rather than die in transit.
