What do most customers do with trees that have been grown or established in RootBuilder containers at the time of sale?

It is not necessary to ship the plants in the RootBuilder® container for the root ball to stay together because the roots are so fibrous. The technique that both customers and nurseries are pleased with is to lift the trees at the nursery, remove the RootBuilder® container and cover the root ball with black stretch wrap. This gives the nursery the re-use of the container without the fuss of deposits and returns, and the customer will have less to handle and dispose of at the landscape site. It is best to use black stretch wrap. Clear stretch wrap will cause a “greenhouse effect” that will accelerate heating and lethal root temperatures could be reached.
