Understanding Plant Options
Nature Hills offers plants in two main formats:
- Container Plants: Grown in pots with soil, sized by container volume and plant age
- Bare Root Plants: Dormant plants without soil, sized by height measurements
Container Plant Sizes

#ProPlantTips for Care:
When planting, go ahead and give this Weeping Flowering Cherry a spot in full sun and well-drained soil. Water it in well using the Finger Test when planting but after it's established it'll only need a moderate amount of water during heat and prolonged drought. Top dress with a 3-4 inch deep layer of mulch around their root system for best results.
