How do you commute with a bouquet of fresh flowers? 💐 (slrpnk.net)

I would like to avoid exposing them to the cold/wind but I am concerned that they'd get crushed bungee'd into a basket and would not fit into my backpack.

At the store get a couple extra pieces of the wrapping paper to cover it. Wrap the outer layers loose, so they take the pressure and prevent the flowers from getting squished. In a pannier or backpack they can stick out, but they should be fine as long as the paper doesn't get wet.
