Just received some from Dobies.  They were packed into a smallish box abut 4x6", but no soil on the roots.

Excellent. That sounds easy enough then! Have just started an ebay shop, and have just sold my first strawberries - then realised I had no clue how to post them!!!

Hey, good luck with your venture - what the name of your ebay shop?  I sold some pumpkin seeds on ebay - paid for my first load of compost ::)

I should mention that Dobies wrapped a plastic bags around the roots.

Thanks for the tip SMP. Thought if I sold all my spare bits ad pieces I'd be able to buy some stuff I still need - for example desperately need to get some timber to repair my fruit cage after evil vandals got in! GRRRR!

My shop is called 'Rainbow craft box' - It's only been open a few days, and am still listing. It's a weird combination of crafts and plants!.
