How to wrap this present please

I'm not too sure if this is the best thread to write the post.

I have bought a very nice artificial orchid for my friend's retirement present. She retired yesterday, but having a get together in the canteen tomorrow.

What is the best way presenting it in either wrapping paper, gift bag or anything else? The plant is 70cm tall and many gift bags are 45-50cm. The only gift bags I have found so far that fits is one of those huge ones which I can put everything including the kitchen sink and are too wide. They are really designed for kids with a multiple of presents. Plus there is a ceramic vase as part of the flower. So I want something that looks good and keeps the delicate and fragile present from getting damaged.
