I was talking to my mom (who lives in Chicago) for Mother's Day and was
trying to explain to her what a Portulacaria was (Baby Jade/Elephant Plant).
I got the idea that perhaps I could just ship her a few cuttings, she's very
adept at growing stuff. She's got gro-lights for use in the winter, and the
plants could be outside in the summer. Not really sure how they'd take to
the idea, but seeing as how how easy to obtain the cuttings are right now
for me, not a huge loss. Anyway, my point is, what's the best way to ship
bonsai? I've got a couple options, I could wait till I can obtain some more
fresh cuttings and just ship her those and let her plant them, or I could
take a cutting I have with roots out of a pot and send it, or I could just
send the cutting pot and all. I work at Staples and have a UPS outlet there
so I'd use UPS to ship. Any suggestions or thoughts?
