S4.6 Cell grown shrubs

root system - root protection - bare root shrubs (bagged) - rootball shrubs - container grown shrubs - cell grown shrubs

Cell grown shrubs, which are usually seedling in form, combine growing the plant in a container (a cell) and then supplying the plant as a complete rootball, bundled together, protected with plastic and supplied in boxes.

Cell shrubs are specified by ROOT VOLUME (Container size), HEIGHT and ROOT COLLAR DIAMETER.

As with all plants, specifications cannot be rigid since growing conditions will vary from year to year but the information in this specification gives the general standards for growing cell plants. Again, as for other stocks, larger plants can be grown on contract.
