Got the box and will be sending it out to Eileen tomorrow. Tracking # is 9405903699300268887242. I'll post later what I kept, but I wanted to let all of you know the box arrived and is ready to go...

Vikki,Sorry some were mush-- It's been chilly here. We have our central heat on EVERY night. Is the temps in your area chilly? Who knows what the box goes through- unheated warehouses, unheated...

Anyway, here's what I kept that wasn't mush: O. Little Moonstone Untamed Heart (I have leaves down of this one but didn't think it would make it through another journey) Andrea Species Rupicola...

HELP!!!!! I want to bounce this off of all of you. I have the box ready to ship to Eileen and was already a little leary about sending it on a Friday and it not getting there until Monday. BUT I just...

I might just hold it until tomorrow and mail it tomorrow so that it stays temperate for another day. It should arrive on Tuesday with either mailing date. Otherwise, not much we can do about the mail...

That's one option. Eileen, do you have a preference since it's head to you?
View ArticleRe: Fall 2014 Round Robin - African Violet (Mixed Sizes) Box!!
holding it for another day may be the best. We have cool nights, but days are still in toe 80s. I think the box is better off where it is cool. Just saying........Even if I'm in a rush for more...

Will do. I've got it sitting on my steps by the door and will drop it off at the PO tomorrow. Hopefully they'll get to you I one piece. Right now they all look good.

I always say that too - they all look so good! ;) And then they arrive! Lol! I would wait the extra day- so the box isn't sitting in an unheated warehouse! Tonight's 39* brrrr!

It's heading to FL, so cold shouldn't be much of a problem.

Looks like the box got there yesterday. I've been worried about how it looks because I got it on Thursday and, even though I replaces a ton of leaves, it was a very long weekend in the postal system.

Box came late yesterday. Most were in good condition- limp, but viable. I had to toss aprox. 7 bags. Some bags of leaves were starting to turn to mush, and tossed . Box was refilled and sent off...

Louise, I hope they arrive in good shape. The weather has been pretty good here the last few days. Not too hot. Box went straight from home to PO. The rest is up to them. :) Hope you find something...

Eileen - I have a feeling that your Sevrat is Seurat. I know that because a box I received had those in it and I was confused by the name. Of course, after I realized it might be Seurat, I realized...
