Native Shrubs

Tubelings

American Native Plants stocks a wide selection of trees and shrubs grown as tubelings. Our woody seeds are planted and grown in one of two sizes, depending on the species:

  • Anderson Band Pot (2.5” x 2.5” x 5”): Trees and shrubs are grown in individual pots that are sold in full flats of 36. This size is ideal for species with larger seeds, such as Oaks.
  • Ellepot Trays (2” x 2” x 4.3”): Trees and shrubs are grown in full flats of reusable trays that are filled with specially designed paper and media. Plants can be removed from the tray without compromising the integrity of the root system, allowing the tray to be reused. Sold in full flats of 32.

Depending on the conditions of the planting site, trees and shrubs as tubelings can have a significantly higher survivability rate than bareroot plants thanks to their young and healthy root systems fully encased in the media that surrounded them since germination from seed. Tubelings are also very easy to transport and plant.

Containers #1, #2, #3, and #5

We grow native shrubs in containers for your transport and planting convenience. Shrubs grown in containers have well-developed root systems and plenty of surrounding soil, so you won’t need to wait for them to start growing. As a rule of thumb, the bigger the container number, the larger the size of the bush. We offer native shrubs in containers #1, #2, #3, and #5.

  • #1: 1-gallon pots that typically hold 3 quarts of soil, 6 1/2” diameter, 7” tall
  • #2: 2-gallon pots, 8 ¾” diameter, 8 ½” tall
  • #3: 3-gallon pots, 11” diameter, 9 5/8” tall
  • #5: 5-gallon pots, 10 ¾” diameter, 11” tall

The final volume and height of your container and native shrub is determined seasonally and by species.
