This would insure that the plants re-flush fully from spending a week in a dark refrigerated container. We will spray, provide root stimulants, fertilize, irrigate, etc. to push new blooms and foliage so Jeffrey doesn't ever have to see a bunch of twigs and sticks being unloaded. The drawback, however, is that it will take a minimum of 3 weeks from the time we receive the container on STX to turn the materials around to LSJ. Therefore, if we finalize the sales order this week we would anticipate tagging next week, shipping to STX the week of June 5th (Memorial Day screws up the schedule for loading the previous week), unload June llth on STX, reload and ship to LSJ the week of July 8th. You mentioned that LSJ would be getting a large order of Coconut palms shortly, so between that and running irrigation for the plants that we are providing, we won't be far apart on the required timeframe. There's only one sailing a week (Thurs.)- otherwise we would have more options. Let me know if you have any questions or require additional information. Regards, EFTA00682473
