The Original Root Pruning System
The Rootmaker System: How It Works
RootMaker® products are designed to create fibrous, non-circling root systems horizontally and vertically at all phases of production to equip plants for transplanting success. Our products aren’t just “containers” but rather root production tools. Each step complements the next, building upon the previous fibrous root system.

I use RootMaker® because I think it’s the best tree-growing technology on the market, and I stick with RootMaker® because the staff are so genuinely knowledgeable, helpful, and interested in conservation.
