Hi, Linda. Welcome to NGA!
I totally agree about " little miracles" and plants being expensive. AND wondering how anyone ever packs a plant for shipping so it arrives as a plant!
I would rather urge you to look into seed swaps, listed under "Tools and Apps", but I remember there was an article, once upon a time ...
Oh wow! I found three.
I went to:
- "Community" (top menu bar)
- - "Community Ideas"
- - - searched on ... pack plants shipping
... and found ...

But it's a lot easier to pack 100 packets of seeds than one small plant!
