THE ADVANTAGES OF BARE ROOT PLANTS
While some bare-root plants are available at garden centers, most gardeners turn to mail-order nurseries to get theirs. 1) One advantage of going mail-order is that you can often choose from a wider selection of plants, including rare heirloom varieties. But don’t get too carried away! Before you buy anything, be sure that the plants you want to order are suitable for your climate. 2) Another advantage is bare-root plants usually cost 10-40 percent less than container-grown selections, even after shipping costs. Bare-root plants are economical to ship because there’s no heavy soil to add to freight costs. The roots are packed in sawdust, shredded paper or sphagnum moss to hold moisture. This temporary root-ball is then wrapped in plastic to prevent the packing material from drying out. So all in all bare root is a convenient and practical way to purchase your perennial selections.
