- Height on Arrival: 200-250cm inc. rootball (Air-Pot® sold separately)
- Supplied As: Air-Pot® Grown Rootballed Tree. This method promotes healthy root growth by air-pruning roots and preventing spiraling. Before delivery, we unclip the Air-Pot® and wrap the rootball in hessian for safe transport, allowing us to reuse the pot. You can purchase the Air-Pot® separately if you prefer the tree to be sent in its pot.
