Transporting Orchids From Heat/Cold Environments
 

Sorry to keep posting with so many questions...

I live in Upstate NY and we can frequently expect snow in April and sometimes even May. :((

I am planning on purchasing a few new friends at the Garden Show in the middle of March. How can I safely transport/shield my plants from when I take them out of the heated bldg. to outside where my car is?

Unfortunately, the parking lot isn't one where people can drive up next to the bldg. to load things into their cars. Do you just put them in paper bags to keep them shielded from the wind and cold? Thanks!

well you could get a cheap styrofoam cooler with a lid if they are not too big.....

Cardboard boxes and newspapers is what I used earlier this month.

Great ideas... I think I'll come armed with both just in case.
