Perry,

Yes to both. In my experience they are both slow.

She did have some damage due to a tornadoe (not the hurricane), but is
still in business. The only thing damaged was my N. bicalcarata plant
that was on order :-).

You can call them at (813) 546-7882.

Well, I think I was the one that made that posting! Just last month
I received several exotic Oxalis plants, Vanilla planifolia 'varigata',
and Salvinia rotundifolia from Glasshouse. They took several months
to ship the order.
