Below are native bare root trees and shrub we typically offer. Ideal for stream restoration and wetland mitigation projects. Contact our office for specific pricing and availability.

Bare root seedlings are usually 12-18″ plants lifted from the soil in the fall and winter.  The soil is mostly removed from the roots which are then dipped in a moisture retention polymer.  The plants are stored in bags in a refrigerated building. 

Bare root seedlings are only available during the winter months.
