Ecotrays

Ecotrays are:
Economical: 20 plants comparable to the size one gets in 2L bags at a low cost per plant. Because of the deep root ball, they establish more easily than plugs or six packs.
 
Ergonomical: One person can carry 40 plants (a tray in each hand) making for labour saving and easy handling.
 
Eco-friendly: The tray itself is made of recyclable plastic, less fertilizer and water are used in their production and less diesel is used on transport if one calculates it on a per plant basis making for a smaller carbon footprint.
 
To get the full story and read the Ecotray (TM) brochure, click on the images below to enlarge, and scroll down if you are already familiar with this product to see pictures of the plants themselves.
