I think you're misunderstanding what group orders are. They're for importing plants from another country, pooling orders to save on the very high shipping costs of international packages and associated paperwork. There's no purpose to a domestic group order unless you know someone local you can hand plants off to in person.

I thought it might be there was a volume/quantity discount that could make up a group purchase but didn't see one...then I saw the price per plant!!!

The seedbank is just gonna have to do for me!
