Rooted
Cuttings

Product Overview

Rooted cuttings are smaller citrus trees grown on their own roots, making them an excellent choice for home gardeners and small-scale growers. Unlike trees grafted onto rootstocks, these cuttings may not be as disease-resistant, but they offer several advantages, especially for container gardening.

​

Advantages of Rooted Cuttings:

Ease of Transplanting: Rooted cuttings are simpler to transplant compared to citrus liners, making them ideal for beginners and hobbyists. Their smaller size and established root systems reduce transplant shock, ensuring a smoother transition to your garden or container.


Container Gardening: These trees thrive in small containers, perfect for patios, balconies, and backyards. Their compact size makes them suitable for urban gardening, allowing you to enjoy fresh citrus fruits even in limited spaces.


Quick Propagation: Our propagation process takes only 6-8 weeks, ensuring a fast turnaround to a finished product. This quick propagation time means you can enjoy your citrus trees sooner, with less waiting time compared to other methods.

 

Why Choose Rooted Cuttings?

Compact Size: Ideal for limited spaces and urban gardening. Rooted cuttings are perfect for those who want to grow citrus trees but lack the space for larger, grafted trees.
 

Cost-Effective: Generally, more affordable than grafted trees. Rooted cuttings provide a budget-friendly option for those looking to start their own citrus garden.

​

Genetic Consistency: Propagated from healthy parent plants, rooted cuttings ensure predictable growth, fruit quality, and performance.

​

Faster Establishment: With an existing root system, they adapt and grow quickly after planting, helping you reach production sooner.

​

Versatility: Suitable for both container growing and field planting, making them a flexible choice for various growing operations.
