    hi every one, i bought 160 plug impaitants bussy lizzie, & 60 plug petunia rose for Ã?£20 what i thought was a good buy, i have bought one of those small greenhouses to put them in as my garden is not that big, as you can see i have planted then in those small planters so you can plant them straight into the ground or pots without disturbing the roots, i have one problem my mum is coming to visit me for a week and i,m looking foreward to seeing her this coming thursday and she wants to take a few busy lizzies back with her, but she is coming by air plane and returning by plane but the flight is only 1 hour, how could she transport these plants home without damaging them, [​IMG]

    Hi Paul, I would suggest putting the root and soil bits in little plastic baggies then rolling the whole plant up in newspapers being careful not to squash them. Then put all in another plastic bag (so the clothes don't get messed up) but leave the top open so that air gets in and the plants don't go soggy. This is how I always take plants along and never had a problem.

    How's Billy doing these days, and has he learnt any more new words?
