CONTAINERS
You can provide your own and we can plant your tree directly
in it, or we can offer some styles of wicker, terra cotta
or commercial grade containers should you desire. Selection
can be made from our catalogs.
There are many styles and
sources of containers. Your own container may be used. Simply
measure the inside diameter at the top, middle and bottom
to make sure our nursery containers, which are standard,
may fit.
Baskets: Not
recommended for commercial use, however they are available
in whitewashed finish, natural or dark stain finish. Sizes
vary from 12” top diameter to 18” diameter.
Anything larger would not be sturdy for large trees and
the rims can be easily damaged by being pulled on to move
the tree or plant.

90% lighter than stone or clay. Ristss chipping, cracking
