T7.6 Cell grown trees

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

Cell trees 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 by contract.
