I like your idea, and if a swivel base was put underneath the barrel, a second box wouldn't be necessary because once the plant was upright, the barrel could just be rotated 180 deg in about 1 sec, and then when you rolled it back down, the opposite side of the pstem would be facing down.

I think I will build a swivel to put under the barrel that way I can effortlessly rotate it 360 deg when its upright.
You think like an engineer my friend, great idea!
