root system - root protection - bare root shrubs (bagged) - rootball shrubs - container grown shrubs - cell grown shrubs
Typically shrubs grown from seedlings, hardwood field grown cuttings
and then transplanted are supplied bare root. All bare root systems must be supplied in bags, containing and enclosing the whole root system. Seedlings, cuttings and transplants (up to 30-40 cm. Overall height) are typically supplied with shoots and roots fully enclosed in the bag, whereas for larger shrubs, if lifted bare root, only the root system is enclosed. Ideally the bags should be manufactured from co-extruded polythene black on the inside and white on the outside.
Shrubs must be supplied bagged
unless any other protection (rootball, container grown) for the root
system is specified. |
