I order six and received three extra. Got them several months ago
and all are doing very well in pots in the cattle trough. They were
packed in damp paper towels in baggies. Some were a bit dry
compared to what I've received in the past, but Down Under is a
ways off. I didn't get Gerry's warning, so I just handled them
barehanded. They will have to adjust to the new hemisphere, but
so far I can't tell that they can tell. Look better than any I have
planted because for some reason the grasshoppers didn't eat those
in the trough. The insecticide?
