An improved method and system for packaging horticultural products for transport is provided. An insert, which may be frusto-conical in shape, comprising a first and second open end is inserted into a larger vessel such that a watertight seal is formed between the first open end and the opening of the vessel. The insert thus defines a space between a sidewall of the insert and a sidewall of the vessel, and a space below the second open end of the insert above the base of the vessel. The space may be partially filled with a liquid in a volume such that when the vessel and insert is tipped or inverted, the liquid is retained within the space defined in the vessel. Also provided is a carrying case, which may be manufactured from paperboard or cardboard, for transporting the vessel and insert.
