Get a moving box big enough for them ..no one is going to suspect boxes when moving....and secure them inside. being in a box a few hours isnt going to hurt them....I guess I should ask...is the move across town or state?.
Then a box it is...of course it doesn't need to be as wide as plant...just a box big enough to hold...just drop whole plant in there,, and mind the branches as you lower her.
Once it gets into mid summer here it hits around 100-110F pretty much every day. Get's down to maybe the low 90's overnight if you're lucky. It's not just the blaring, unrelenting desert sun that worries me, though. I'm doing a container garden on an old hot tub pad in the south east corner of the yard, so it's all concrete and rock and stone wall nearby. The reflective and radiant heat off all that stone could be an issue as well. So I'm thinking a 30-40% range shade cloth overhead to help keep temps down a little. Hoping it might also trap in some humidity with how dry it is here, but will be open sided so doubtful it'll do much on that front.
Just not sure if I should prioritize trying to have it up and ready as soon as the plants go outside or if it's something that can wait until the temps start to really crank up.
