Roots Plus Growers (RPG) is an association of nurserymen from around the state of Florida who are committed to increasing the quality and public perception of field-grown trees. Their mission is three fold:
*To guarantee the consumer they are buying a hardened-off, field-grown tree
*To share new ideas to continually improve tree quality
*To sponsor research and educational programs
As Roots Plus Growers, we guarantee our customers are buying the best quality hardened-off tree available. All of our trees are held until new roots develop and are ready to start growing into your landscape.
Hardening-off means the tree has been held in our nursery under optimum irrigation until new roots have begun to regenerate. (3-4 weeks minimum). These roots are ready to start growing into your landscape.
Look for the "ROOTS PLUS GROWERS" tag in your next shipment of trees to guarantee you are buying quality hardened-off field-grown trees.
The Tampa Bay Wholesale Growers is a Limited Agricultural Association. The purpose of the fifty nine member nursery association is to promote harmony and good will among its members, to promote greater interest in the use of plants, to achieve common goals, to solve common problems and to set a high standard of business ethics for the nursery industry in Hillsborough County.
