YES! Contact Wilson's nursery about a mile SW of Chicago. �They have trees that they will hand dig and prune all roots. �More cost but much higher quality. Were you dropped on your head at birth or are you naturally retarded... no wonder you post such little factual plant info, you're functionally illiterate. The OP asked for "rock bottom clearance prices"... anytime a nursery custom digs the price will be substantially higher than already dug stock, especially in frozen ground. And of course some nurseries will dig all winter, even if the ground is frozen, they have the excavating equipment juat as major landscapers will plant all winter... but it cost$$$$! In colder climes (like Chicago) at this time of year nurseries have already heeled in any plants worth saving, the rest are already in the compost heap. All one will find for sale are those plants in the greenhouses, and balled and burlapped conifers and those in pots that are also heeled in awaiting Santa, but I promise those are not at Charlie Brown bargain prices. I would advise folks not to purchase potted conifers for indoor decorating thinking they will plant them outdoors right after the holidays... they are a way over priced gimmick, more than half will die, and those are sold with no warranty. It's far wiser to buy larger conifers and plant them from spring thru fall, and forget all about live conifers indoors, what a stupid concept, pure marketing to those with more dollars than brain cells. |
