What is Bare Root?

A bare root tree is exactly as it sounds - a tree with no leaves and the roots bare from soil (exposed). The trees (like any nursery tree) may be grown from seedling or budded or grafted. Bare root trees are grown in paddocks for two years and then when dormant in winter trees are dug from the ground.


Most deciduous plants are available bare rooted in winter including roses, fruiting, and ornamental trees.

What options do we have?

We carry a wide selection of bare root trees to ensure your garden has it all.

Why choose bare root trees?

SUCCESS: Winter is a great time for planting in general. For ease of planting, watering and for giving the plants time to adjust to their new homes before the heat of summer.

For less shock to the plant.

Experience shows us with quality products, expert advice and following a clear process growing from bare root is a successful investment.

Roots of bare root trees thrive when planted in your garden, when breaking dormancy the roots will quickly and easily adapt to their new home.
 
VARIETY: Bare root season is the re-stocking period for all deciduous trees in our nursery. This is the time of year you will find the largest range in stock. 
 
COST: Bare root is a cost effective choice for people planning to plant a substantial amount of trees.
 
EFFORT: Transporting and planting Bare Root trees is far less physically demanding than working with advanced fully leafed trees. 
 
And, for the waste conscious purchasing without a pot is another advantage – especially if buying large numbers
