Planting Container-Grown Plants When you buy perennials online, usually they are shipped as “bare-root”. Because the gardener spreads out the roots in the process of planting, these plants tend to establish themselves quickly in their new environment. These types of planting tend to create anxiety with new gardeners, but really, there is no reason to. At garden centers most perennials are purchased as container-grown. One of the most common problems with a containerized plant is getting a root-bound plant. Compared to a “bare root” grown plant, which roots have been fanned out and are growing into the surrounding soil, a root-bound containerized plant will continue to grow in a circle and soon strangle itself. Sometimes, however, we all end up buying a root-bound plant. When this happens, they can be planted successfully provided the roots are teased apart. In this article we will explore techniques for such rescue. containerized • potted • plants • soil • root
