The heat thing is ok now, I am in the South and the June thru Aug months are BRUTAL heat so those would be BAD months for any live plant shipping here unless some serious precautions were taken, even then much like winter n herps, summer here would be a "wait for weather improvement" shipping availability right? I'd think an hour in the truck to pick up n send it would wilt it and a day could kill it (tho these plants survive ours summers regularly)
I don't know about 'cooling' a box, I'm well trained on heating for herps lol cooling I haven't had to do, venting I have, but I would think cold packs would be just as bad as excessive heat? I suppose it depends on the plants being shipped and their specific tolerences...
