Oh Mr. Post man!

It's never a good thing when your new figs show up with this kinda label from the post office. My poor Jack Lily and Bordisotte Negra was a a bit shaken during their trip over to me. Because they had to be rewrapped it got stuck over the weekend in their box instead of arriving on Friday.

They plants arrived alive but in real bad shape unfortunately. The Jack lily has been on my wish list for over a year and it doesn't look like it's gonna make it. The seller was nice enough to send a new one for the cost of shipping.

A few days later:

Update: 7/19/16
Both my jack lilys died. Poor packaging and an unhealthy root system was the cause.
