ABSTRACT:
A method to pot field-grown evergreen or hard-to-transplant trees and shrubs involving container growing, digging, and potting procedures. After a tree or shrub reaches nearly salable size in the field, hollow cylinder is pushed in the ground so that the major root system is contained in the cylinder. The cylinder is left in the soil for 4-12 months until new root system establishes in the cylinder. Shortly before shipping, the cylinder is dug with the roots and soil intact and inserted in a cylindrical pot, thus containing a ready-to-plant tree or shrub in a double-wall cylindrical pot.
