Migrated topic.

Boundary condition
After a year or so apart, I've finally brought my long-missed cactus display to my new(ish) home. Unwrapping then after the journey was a bit like getting an early Xmas present, so I thought I'd share some pics. :love:

:) Thanks for the replies, folks.

Here's a brief rundown of the packing method:

-support the trough at both ends on a couple of large inverted flower pots.

-wrap round thoroughly with bubble wrap (I wanted to use thin foam wrap but couldn't get any at the time). Secure with a little sellotape (normal clear sticky tape).

-wrap again with cling film so that all the bubble wrap is covered. Secure firmly with parcel tape (the brown stuff). This permits easy removal and re-use of the bubble wrap.
