Unfortunately, I'm not in a position to take my collection with me. For an apartment-dweller, I've acquired quite a lot of plants!

I'll hold on to a few tough-as-nails, floriferous, windowsill plants, because I can't imagine life w/o some orchids!!

I've donated a few larger plants to a local university's botanical garden, but the truth is that I've invested so much in my plants that I would rather not give all of them away for free.

Has anyone else been in this or a similar situation? What did you do?

Yes, divorce. I had a good friend who had a greenhouse board them until I was resettled and able to reclaim them. Is it a cross-country move? Are you moving yourself or is your new company paying for the move? And how many is "a lot of plants"?
