You will need:
1) 2 ziploc bags (depends on the size of the plant)
2) a bucket of water (any watertight container works)
3) a paper towel or toilet paper works too.
4) a box and newspaper

Step 1) Remove the plant from its pot

Step 5) [Not for all plants] If you are sending a very large plant, put a bag over the first one on the uncovered side of the plant

Step 6) Get a box, line it with newspaper, put the plant in, and you are ready to go! :mrgreen:
Hope this Helps
