I think they will be fine, they do wrap them very well with newspaper, etc. That will provide some insulation!

Take pictures and post what you get!!!!

[Call_Me_Bob]

I ordered too and mine should arrive tomorrow. Can't wait!

I'm not too worried. My earlier orchid haul arrived (from another place) when it was much colder here (temps in the 20s during the day). When the package arrived, the heat packs were barely warm but the orchids were nice and safe.

Just be sure to take the package inside quickly. My fedex driver didn't ring the doorbell, but luckily I saw the truck outside the window so I rushed downstairs.

[Orchidreamer]
