MOVING TIP: If you are one of those gifted people that have a “green thumb” and enjoy growing house plants, perhaps one of your toughest decisions to make when moving is what to do with your Flora friends? Options may include gifting plants away to friends or donating them to a nursing home, school or hospital.

If the thought of getting rid of your plants makes you sad, pre-planning is the key to keeping them with you. You’ll need to decide if you want to move the full plant or just cuttings to start anew; then – and here is the important thing – contact the U.S. Dept of Agriculture and see if you will need a permit to transport plants through or into certain states. Also, ask your mover of choice for transportion tips. They may have extra packing materials available to assist you in safely perparing your plants for transport.
