Transporting tall plants - BYOS (Bring your own sheets)


Ilene (pictured above) and Stephen, customers from Leesburg, purchased two very tall 7-gal Graceful bamboos today but the 20' tall plants wouldn't fit inside their SUV.  Not a problem.  With a bit of creativity, an open window, several old sheets and some string, we were able to secure the plants for the ride home. 

Wrapping tender leaves in a sheet (above) protects them from wind damage


Above:  A view inside.  Note the old sheets underneath the pots to protect the vehicle's floor from dirt.  

Below:  Stephen offers a "thumbs up" as the couple leaves the nursery to head back home.  Note how the thin tops of the bamboo are wrapped up and secured across the SUV's hood.
