Why Buy Container Grown?

Reasons to buy container grown tree seedlings vs bare root or balled and burlapped trees:

1. Container grown trees can be planted 12 months out of the year, with adequate watering. Bare Root or Balled and Burlapped trees have to be fully dormant in order to dig plants, where container plants are ready anytime.


2. Container grown trees keep 100% of it's roots with the plant when harvested unlike Bare Root or Balled and Burlapped plants where a large portion of the feeder roots are left in the ground when they are harvested.


3. Container grown plants have far less transplant shock when harvested and replanted at their new location.


4. The survival rate of a container grown tree is far superior to Bare Root or Balled and Burlapped trees.
