How to pack your plants in your check in luggage to survive an transcontinental airplane trip

John of www.growingyourgreens.com shows you how he packed his plants in his check-in luggage to take his tropical plants back to california on the airplane

Shipping plants overnight would be very expensive. I already was on a flight and am alloted 3 check in bags for free. So this was the best use of resources at the time.

I want to take my bonsai fiscus and jade with me from India to Canada..

thanks for the video :-)

Thanks for this video! I've been wondering how you packed plants so that they didn't get broken in transit. If I ever need to fly with plants I'll keep this in mind.

Can we bring live plants in carry on luggage too, or as hand luggage?

[@phantomcreamer]

Well done sir! Did your cuttings do well?

[@ferdaozdemir]

Hi,
What is the name of the plastic tube you used to carry the plant stick? Can you share a link please? Thanks for the video. I am living abroad now. Leaving my two plants would be difficult when I return back.

I just wonder what the x-ray guys though? LOL. That is so funny. But what a great idea.

[@shirleyannfritz3330]

😂 thank you ❤

[@madhdamm2888]

Could you kindly tell me from where did you buy the plants? from which country?

[@renober7084]

with soil??? From what I've gathered they don't allow soil, the plants must be bareroot. Did you manage to get it safely into your country?

[@sassyleochick]

So was this legal or not? I'd like to be able to do the same. Does anyone know?

[@sultansulu7589]

Smuggling 🌳🌴🙄🤔😁

[@DannyTillotson]

Indeed. Looks like it.

[@kokonutbaby1]

wouldnt it have been cheaper to just ship the plants to your house? I thought airports would not let u bring in any plants from anywhere.

[@Mcfirefly2]

Did they survive? The other consideration is cold, but I do know that plants are sent by air.
