Moving Plants

While you were preparing for your move, you may have forgotten about your little green friends and how they are going to be moved. No worries however, because here is a guide on moving those plants without harming them and grow anew at your future home:

• If your moving a long distance (across state lines or internationally), move your plants yourself! This is important because while your moving company will most likely move your plants for you, they do not water them.
• If you cant (or don't have room to) travel with your plants in your own car or transport, moisten their soil before the trip. This should help them survive the journey. Remember that most plants can survive for up to 10 days without water.
  
• If you are moving across state lines, find out if that state allows for your plants. Certain states (e.g. Florida and California) are strict about what plants are allowed to be brought into their state.
• For your larger plants, cut back some of their growth so as to reduce their space requirements. This doesn't harm the plant, as it will simply grow back what it has lost.
• Many plants cant survive in certain temperatures (below 30 or above 100 degrees), so transport them accordingly. Place them in heated vehicles in the winter and air conditioned vehicles in the summer.
