    Why Bare-Root Plants? 

    • Bare root plants allow for you to jumpstart your native pollinator garden as the roots have one year of stored energy and will grow more quickly and more robustly than a seedling plant. 
    • Bare root plants can more easily outcompete weeds, especially in the first years. 
    • Bare root plants make weeding easier as they are larger and more robust than seedling weeds. 
    • Bare root plants are less bulky and expensive compared with potted plants. 

      Materials

      Bare-root plugs grown using organic methods on Washington Island.
