Hello Everyone,
I am wondering if anyone knows of an economical (or at least something approaching economical) way to ship potted CPs.
I only got my first CP this past summer: a Sarracenia purpurea ssp. purpurea from northern Wisconsin. It is growing in a large cooler in a bed of sphagnum moss along with some non-carnivorous bog plants. I am thinking that it would be fun to try to get some other CPs, but there is a big problem with that. Right now, I'm two weeks into a three-year stint at law school, so for the next three years, I will be in one state for the school year and another state during the summer. As far as I can see, I can't keep any CPs unless I can ship them home when I go home and then ship them to school when I go back to school. (I'm not trying to ship the cooler. When I travel by train, I can bring the cooler as a carry-on. I would only need to ship potted plants.)
If anyone knows anything about how to do this, how much it would cost, or whether there is a lot of paperwork involved, I would greatly appreciate hearing about it. Thanks!
