Bareroot Sale 2011

The 2011 season gets going with our three-day Bareroot Sale. As always, during this sale, all bareroot nursery stock is sold at 25% off the regular potted price. The sale includes most of our ornamental trees, fruit trees and shrubs. In addition our selection of small fruits and roses come bareroot and are also 25% off the regular price.

In our experience, and as many of you have already discovered, bare root plants thrive when planted in the cool spring weather and perform equally well compared to container grown plants. They are also much easier to handle!

They can be stored safely for at least a week provided they are kept moist and cool. Please ask our staff for more care information and for our handouts, which we believe you will find very helpful. Our staff is also available to answer any additional questions on planting and pruning, or choosing the right plants for your location.

For highlights and details on some of the new 2011 varieties, please refer to our plant catalog for photos and a complete listing.

In addition to the wide selection of bareroot plants available, there are many varieties that are available in containers only. These include all of the evergreens and a few other trees and shrubs. In the catalog, any nursery item listed without a 'Ct' in the column will be available bareroot at the sale. After April 23^rd everything will be potted up in containers.

Even though it may still be a little cool outside, the greenhouses are already full of lush and blooming plants, so step in out of the cold and have a peak. If you do purchase something, just keep in mind it may need to be kept in a warm area until the threat of frost is past.

Free coffee and cookies is available to keep you warm while shopping. Before leaving, make sure to sign up for our special door prizes.

The Bareroot Sale marks the start of the 'Bonus Bills' program. From April 21^st to May 31^st you will receive one 'Bonus Bill' for every $10 spent. Then from July 1^st to July 31^st you can use the bills you have collected to pay for up to 50% of any plants purchased that are not already on sale.
