CEDARS...CEDARS...CEDARS
There are basically 3 ways to grow a cedar. One way is to dig it bare root in the field in a ball in spring. The larger the cedar, the more important it is that it has a large root system to support itself, so it's not uncommon to find a large root ball with this type of cedar. To ensure they can be planted all season long, they are sometimes placed into pots to keep them upright, and to make them easier to handle.
Another way is to start it as a small cedar in a pot, and grow it from very young in progressively larger pots until it is a bigger plant with a dense complete root system. This 'container growing' means you have NO TRANSPLANT SHOCK, and with deep regular watering and feeding the first season it will grow and thrive. At Grobe's... these are the only 2 ways we sell cedar.
The third way is to clear a field of old, field grown cedars and place THEM into plastic pots. As heavy root balls cost a lot to freight, the smaller this pot is, the cheaper it is for the seller. So, fewer roots go with the plant. Makes it easy to plant, and cheap to buy... but it is much harder on the cedar.
In fact, someone unsuspecting might believe it is a container grown plant. It isn't. So what happens next? No roots to collect water and then this... So...does Grobe's offer an inexpensive quality cedar?
We do - and they are now available this spring.
But not for long, because they soon will be gone. EMERALD PYRAMIDAL CEDAR 4'+ tall - for a limited time.... 49.88 Here's a picture of ours including the roots. We invite you to compare. At this price they are sold AS IS (without warranty). We reserve the right to limit quantities.

Grobe's Exclusive 6 STEP PERFECT LAWN PROGRAM Why Are Folks Buying Grobe's Lawn Program Already? BECAUSE IT REALLY WORKS! IF YOU WANT GREAT TURF...THIS WILL MAKE A NOTICEABLE IMPROVEMENT
It's a complete year long fertilizer program for anyone to achieve professional results by doing it themselves. It is designed for a 3000 sq. ft. lawn area and includes 6 applications of lawn fertilizer throughout the year. Unlike similar 'package' programs, it uses the latest granular slow-release fertilizer technology to deliver a complete and balanced feeding including micronutrients and phosphorus to ensure strong growth. The primary nitrogen source is UMAXX stabilized nitrogen, which is eco-friendly as it the only fertilizer available to homeowners to include two enzyme inhibitors that limit nitrogen loss due to volatilization to the atmosphere as well as due to leaching to the groundwater. This exclusive slow-release 28-4-12 fertilizer with 1% ironand micronutrients feeds equally well regardless of weather or soil temperature, will deepen turf colour, and is entirely used up by the turf. It can be used in fall to dormant feed, and what isn't used by your turf will be retained in the soil over the winter for later use in early spring.
The summer fertilizer component of this program is a bio-based organic slow release golf-course fertilizer that can be applied at any temperature. Exclusively available in this program, it is safe for pets and kids, has a 70% organic matter content that will improve drought tolerance and stimulate microbial action and is enriched with 2% iron for great turf colour. It will aid in minimizing 6 different turf diseases with over 6 billion beneficial bacteria in every bag, naturally reduce the amount of thatch, and will give controlled growth without additional summer mowing work for you.
Total Cost if all components bought separately - 171.96
LOOK! WHILE SUPPLY LASTS ... NO PRICE INCREASE IN 2024! HURRY... ALMOST GONE!! 148.88
