Awe!! So pretty! I miss mine from my moo-moo so much! I wish it hadn't died on me. But they really do last a long time! Mine wasn't that big, I'd say about 1/2 that size maybe a lil more.
Very pretty!

Not a clue, I abuse my plants, my mil can't believe it's still alive. I've had it for years and years, over 15. I have a ficus I've had since I was 16, I'm now 41. It goes out in the summer and in in the winter. It's getting so big we're not going to be able to drag it in and out anymore.

I wonder if there would be a way to do that? Like you know those water thingys that they put on the end of roses when you buy them? I wonder if something like that could work in a small box
I'd be willing to pay the shipping. I bet it would be super cheap about $2

hmm well i googled it and i think i can wrap them in wet paper towels and put them in a ziploc bag and ship them in a box with perishable written on them and they would make it ok!

btw the thought of this is making me giddy :giggle:
