RE: Rebutia Muscula, I already have this cactus and I got it for free.

Rebutias are lovely! You are very lucky your plants survived packed like that, I would be scared to buy from someone who sent plants that way. The best sellers take the plants out of the soil a few days before shipping and let them dry out a little then either put them carefully in layers of shredded paper or wrap them in tissue like kitchen paper and carefully pad the box with newspaper. Paper absorbs moisture and prevents rotting whereas plastic wrapping will promote it, especially if plants are bumped, which is likely when they are packed in pots

You are absolutely right, luckily I already started looking for other options and I have found some good ones, especially I am liking the idea of buying seeds of different species, as soon as I decide to place an order I will show you how they arrived at my home.
