| Sure, the plants will probably survive, but they'll be set back in their development by a year or more and will be an eyesore for a long time to come. One suggestion for future winter shipments is that you e-mail the vendor at the time you place the order and ask them to ship by US Postal Service and request delivery confirmation. That way the plants will either be delivered to you personally or held in your local post office (hopefully heated) until you can pick them up. FedEx, which is used by many of the Hawaiian vendors, will leave packages outside in the freezing cold if no one is home. |
