Shipping plants is not as difficult as it may seem. First, don't throw away those cell packs from plants you've bought.They can fit into a shoe box upright. Tape them to the bottom so them don't shift around and ship the box off. Plants can also be wrapped in wet newspaper and shipped. Next, be sure to label the box "THIS END UP! LIVE PLANTS!" One final tip - Don't forget to water your plants before you pack them.
