that is an excellent thought. I had asked him if he wanted me to bring one of his nepenthis(sp) but he thought the hospital air was too dry for them. I don't know c.p's are VFT's less sensitive? if the air is fine it would be a good idea provided 30 people did not all send plants...*heh* the room is very small.
Great!!
I will send a plant then..
I was just out on my balcony looking at my plants,
and I think a small Sarracenia Purpurea would be good..
because I can pack it easily to minimize pitcher damage during shipping, and its in a small pot..
all it will need is a bright window..humidity shouldnt be a major problem..it will be much less picky about its conditions than a Nepenthes would..
all it will need is for its tray to be kept filled with distilled water! (I bet you can even get distilled easily in the hospital!
so care will be very easy!
I will let you know when its ready to ship..im going to let the pot dry out for a few days so its not too wet..
