I don't know if this picture will help or not. I took some ideas from vendors who had sent me plants and they arrived in perfect condition.
I used round make up cotton pads and divided them in half once they were wet......to keep the soil in and moist.
Then I used saran wrap to cover the cotton pads and all soil.
Then I used masking tape across the little pots on top of the saran wrap.

Now I have to figure out how I am wrap these little plants headed to Rain..............she bought some......and some leaves. (hope you don't care that I said this, Amy)
