Hi, BCP is opening in a month. I am willing to participate (not host) in a group order. Any 1 planning to order this April?

There's a few things I've thought about buying from them, although I'm worried that rivera mentions the plants were sub-par though...to explain my position more, the group order I was in last year for our household was slightly delayed getting finalized and sent in (it was a HUGE order/a lot for the people to track properly) - and for example (we got 4 VFT cultivars for ourselves) if a listing said it was for 2-3 2+CM plants instead of that size we would get like 10 nearly microscopic plantlets of the cultivar - in the end we got a nicer volume of plants but unfortunately many of them were sick/half dead and being so small we lost a ton of them. now almost a year later we actually "got our moneys worth" out of what is left if you will. so it all wasn't for bust.

I'd prefer a nice-sized robust plant. Was this mainly an issue with VFT's or also their other CP's? I've been looking at their Heliamphora as well.yeah in the end I'm fine with what we got since I'd say a good bulk probably around 60^ like evenwinds survived also but they did send a LOT of those tiny lil plantlets so it worked out it was just very disappointing to open up expecting a couple tiny divisions but instead get what looked like the lil scraps you'd pick up out of a pile of medium after pulling all the nicer divisions out like "hey look here is a tiny hair of a plant lets toss that in!"

The leader has to combine the orders and convert the currency from euros to dollars. The leader has to collect the payment from each participant. The leader has to follow up on the order. The leader has to sort each order once delivered and figure out shipping charges for each person.. just a few things that leader of a group order will do.
Seeds received. Thanks Chef and donors!
