A GREAT TREE BEGINS WITH A SOLID FOUNDATIONWhen a tree seed germinates and begins to grow, it grows in two directions. The topgrows with stem, branches and leaves to gather sunlight for energy. The roots grow

with main roots and delicate feeder roots to gather minerals and nutrients. For atree to grow and thrive, both halves of the tree must be in balance and be healthy.

For this reason, we have chosen to grow our trees in Rootmaker root-pruningcontainers. These containers allow us to grow and deliver a whole tree, which can be

planted with all its roots. A tree planted with all of its roots will establish itself in itsnew home with a minimum of delay. Our goal is the same as yours: To grow a

vigorous, healthy tree that fulfills its intended purpose.
