Welcome to Plant 4 Life Nursery
Here at Plant 4 Life Nursery, we pride ourselves on our years of experience growing and supplying bare root plants from our base here inthe top of the south island, nelson, NZ. Even after all this time it still remains our biggest passion and we very much love growing them out for you to enjoy. In winter we are all hands on deck processing orders, lifting trees from their Nursery beds, grading and checking for quality before packing and loading onto the courier. We work on having your order processed and delivered to you within 5 - 10 working days.

Please note:
We ship largely bare rooted Trees and Shrubs, they do not come in a container. Your plant will be in it's winter dormancy and will have no leaves unless it's a conifer. We dip all plants into a organic hydrating medium prior to packing, this ensures a healthy and moist root system. We pack into durable well supported packaging to prevent damage in transit.
When you receive your plants they can be stored in the unopened packaging in a cool place away from sunlight for up to 5 - 10 days. Otherwise remove from packaging and plant straight into their permanent positions.
The Benefits of bare-root trees
Using the bare root method enables us to courier plants at a cheaper rate.
Bare root trees grown in the open field seem to have more abundant, fibrous roots as compared to container grown trees and also bare-root trees get off to a more vigorous start compared to those containerized. Bare-root trees typically surpass the size of larger containerized trees in only a few years. The bulk of our plants are delivered with natural bare roots which have been dipped in a organic hydrating medium prior to shipment to keep the roots moist and healthy. To be sure your bare root plants arrive in a strong and healthy condition, we ship them in a dormant or "sleeping" state. This means your plants have experienced 2-3 hard frosts and are already prepared to withstand the cold winter conditions.
