Master Gardener Julie Bawden Davis has these tips for moving with potted plants:
- Wait to water your plants until they arrive at the new location.
- Secure the soil in the pot by putting crumpled newspaper in the pot and taping it in place
- Use green garden tape to secure the limbs of large plants to avoid as much damage as possible.
- Transport your plants inside an enclosed vehicle, not in the back of a pickup truck.
