Smart pots allow people who have little land, no land (on walls, roofs, posts, railings) or who want to change the location of their plants as well as better protect them in winter, to grow their own fruit trees!
The possibilities are endless. You can plant: small fruits (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries to pair with apple trees), herbs, vegetable gardens... palm trees!
With a #30 (a minimum for larger fruit trees), we can plant our apple tree (from a dwarf rootstock), gooseberry, currant, blackcurrant, goji berries with herbs or flowers through :)
What does the smart pot allow? It prevents the roots from spiraling (which happens with a fruit tree in a plastic pot). In addition to breathing well, the fruit tree develops strong roots (the root reaches the wall and grows more).
To avoid pesticides and favor nature, choose scab-resistant varieties that also require minimal maintenance, like those we offer here in the store (or at the ancestral nursery or with the urbanculteurs... we're part of the same team!). And great news that makes life easier: we also have smart pots for you!
Happy planting that makes sense! Happy bringing autonomy closer and taking good care of our land!
