Two mail order companies in Australia offer PCN's but to date I haven't
been tempted. They do best if transplanted in autumn, and without delay.
If they don't have any white roots showing, you can put them in water
for a week or so, until these new roots start to grow. I did this
succesfully with some I moved from a pot to the garden. I think that if
they were mailed express, kept moist in the package, and also sent in a
fair sized clump, they would probably do O.K. One company offers unnamed
seedlings at a reduced rate, so I might try these next year, mainly to
obtain some different stock for breeding my own.
