Sometimes one of the toughest decisions to make when you
are moving is what to do with your houseplants. Some of
your choices are:
| |
To give them to friends as a remembrance
To donate them to a local hospital, nursing
home or library
To offer them at a
garage sale
|
Pre-Planning is Key
As with the
rest of your household goods, moving houseplants to a
new home involves pre-planning. Whether you have only a
few houseplants or dozens, there are decisions to make:
| |
Whether to move them
yourself
Whether to take every plant, only favorites or
just cuttings to start new plants
When to arrange for any necessary state
inspection
When and how to start preparing plants for the
move
|
You must realize it's possible
that not all houseplants will withstand a move in spite
of every precaution. There's no one to blame – it's
simply the nature of the plant. |
