After a thorough beta testing, today we are officially releasing the recycling bins for plantpets. We would like to thank all beta testers again for the very helpful comments and ideas!

Yesterday, the server that delivers boosters together with the baby seeds of elite plantpets was significantly optimized and moved to a very low lag land. That will result in receiving the booster simultaneously with the baby seed. Please make sure you do not miss one of the two deliveries when you get a baby from an elite plantpet. In Viewer 3 the two simultaneous deliveries may overlap and one of them may remain hidden in your notifications. Please check notifications when you get babies of elite plantpets.

Today is the last day to purchase the limited Rose 2012 in the PlantPets Main Store. We will remove it from the shop tomorrow and it won’t be sold again except eventually in very limited quantities at special occasions.

Our January sale continues until this Sunday morning. Many plantpet seeds are 20% off and Saintpaulias are 50% off. This Sunday we will make all Saintpaulias except Saintpualia Purpura rare. So this is also the last chance to easily get some Saintpaulias from the PlantPets Main Store and at a very low price.

We have replaced our “gift vouchers” by “gift cards”. The reason for the change is our belief that the term “gift card” is clearer to the majority of our customers. If you own any unused gift vouchers they will continue to work as usual. Only you need now to press the “Gift Card” button on a vendor in the PlantPets Main Store in order to use them in your transactions.

Before we introduced the plantpet seeds, plantpet babies use to come in the form of gift boxes. Now it is time to finally begin the process of retiring the servers which serve those gift boxes. We are planning to shut down those servers on the 1st of March.

If you have any gift boxed plantpets please have them exchanged to baby seeds before the 1st of March. To have a gift box exchanged to a baby seed you need to rez the box, touch it and choose Unpack from the menu. In response you will receive a transferable baby seed.

Please note that plantpet Poinsettia *Vintage* has been upgraded to a limited plantpet. Limited means that it won’t come as the baby seed of another plantpet. Check out its catalog page. The genes of Poinsettia *Vintage* are now changed to match the genes of our new poinsettia plantpets and the baby seeds of the already limited Poinsettia *Vintage* can be any other poinsettia which is not limited.

We are launching our traditional 2-week January Sale. This year it will last until the 15th of January. The price of selected seeds is 20% off for the duration of the sale. Saintpaulias are 50% off and at the end of this sale we will make all Saintpaulias rare except Saintpaulia Purpura which will remain common as part of the starter pack for breeders.

Based on our analysis of the market we will also correct slightly the price of the boosters. We will raise them by 10% from the 2nd of January. The purpose of this correction is to ensure the health of the plantpet seed market.

Dear Friends, we wish you a great New Year! To mark this occasion we are releasing a limited rose with a special particle effect! The rose will be sold only for 12 days in the PlantPets Main Store, until the 12th of January. It will be sold only for 365 for the first 12 hours of the release and for 795 after that. A raffle system will be giving away 1 of those roses every 20 minutes for the first 12 hours of the release!

We reorganised the main menu of this website. Now the catalog of all plantpets is under the Products menu. The baby seed Monitor, the FAQ and the Breeders' Forum are under the menu Breeders. In the same menu you will also find an updated version of the PlantPets User Guide. The FAQ is also updated and with an improved layout.

Our Christmas-themed seasonal plantpets will be available in the PlantPets Main Store for another week until the 1st of January. If you have liked PlantPets on FB you can already collect your reward, a L$450 gift voucher for the PlantPets Main Store. To collect it you need to touch the gift box besides the gift-voucher vendor in the PlantPets Main Store (see attached photo). Please note that we cannot give you a reward if you haven’t sent and IM to Bruce Liebknecht with your FB name.
