The Groff Landscape Design, LLC tree nursery was started in the summer of 2003.  It utilizes the RootMaker® growing system.  We develop our trees in special grow bags which stimulate a very fibrous root system. This results in:

• Greater efficiency of water and nutrient absorption
• Accelerated growth
• Rapid transplant success

            These knit bags have thousands of holes in them which constrict root growth at the point of contact between the roots and the bag and as a result create smaller more fibrous roots to develop.  Unlike traditional growing methods, a tree spade is never used.  Traditional methods can loose up to ninety percent of the root ball where as the RootMaker® system has minimal negative impact on the roots.  This means less stress during harvest time and more energy during the growing season.  We can provide our customers with a selection of some of the healthiest, hardiest trees in the area.  Sure you do not need a tree nursery to be a landscape designer but it does allow us to give our customers a little something extra.
