Root balls

Root balled plants are freshly dug from the field and available in the winter months.  The root balls are typically contained in a hessian sack which can be left on when planted. 

Root-balled plants are trees or shrubs that are dug from the ground with their root system intact and secured in a ball of soil. Planting root-balled plants during the winter months offers several advantages, especially in regions with mild winters. While the plant is dormant, it experiences less transplant shock, allowing it to focus energy on establishing roots rather than supporting new top growth. Cooler temperatures and increased soil moisture reduce stress and water loss, promoting stronger root development before spring. As a result, winter-planted root-balled plants are often better established and more resilient when active growth begins, leading to healthier plants and improved long-term success in the landscape.

The root balls are available to dig from about October to March depending on the weather.
