Allium ‘Millenium’<br />

Why are Bare Root<br />

Amsonia better?<br />

Walters Gardens, Inc. is one of<br />

few, if not the only, wholesale<br />

growers in the US who offers<br />

Amsonia in bare root form.<br />

Though we’ve tried growing it<br />

in plugs in the past, we’ve been<br />

astounded by the difference in<br />

quality since switching to bare<br />

root production.<br />

Allium senescens<br />

‘Blue Eddy’<br />

Alstroemeria INCA ICE (‘Koice’)<br />

The number of eyes on a #1<br />

grade bare root Amsonia ranges<br />

from 5-8 compared to just 1 or 2<br />

in plug form. They finish beautifully<br />

in a 2-qt or 1-gal container,<br />

forming a full and bushy plant.<br />

Now that’s value!<br />

Our #1 Grade bare root<br />

Amsonia averages 5-8 eyes each.<br />

Finished plants from bare root have 5-8<br />

strong stems each and lush foliage that<br />

fills out the pot nicely.<br />
