Hey everyone, it's Bailey with TN Nursery, and the packing warehouse is full today, so I wanted to show y'all and tell y'all some cool facts about bare root plants. Bare root plants establish faster because the roots are not binded up in a pot. Potted plants often develop binded roots that slow down long-term growth. Bare root plants just take to the soil that they're put in and grow immediately. While potted plants, when they get put in the soil, they have to adjust from the fake soil to the native soil. Transplant shock is very low in bare root stock, but in potted plants, they are very likely to have transplant shock. Bare root plants, you can inspect the roots easily before planting. There's nothing hidden from you. Potted plants, is inside a pot with dirt and you can't see if they have root rot or anything else. They may be pretty on the top, but you can't never tell about the root. Now if you'll see here, these are some beautiful red maples, and here's some oak trees. If you'll see, oak trees have one big long taproot and they don't have many fiber roots. That's just how oak trees are. And over here is some beautiful shrubs too. I'm not sure what these are.
