Containerized stock 

 survived better than 

 bareroot, but growth was 

 about even. 



Bareroot 2-2 stock was 

 best. Other bareroot 

 stock performed similar 

 to containerized trees 

 except in fall plantings 

 (3-0) bareroot did not 

 survive as well as con- 

 tainers and in spring 

 plantings bareroot (2-0) 

 grew better than con- 

 tainerized stock. 

 Results are mixed. 

 Mostly little difference in 

 survival and height 

 growth. 



Little difference except 

 bareroot had higher sur- 

 vival in summer planting. 

 Little difference in spring 

 planting but containers 

 showed superior survival 

 and growth in summer 

 planting. 



Little difference in 

 survival. 



Trees on north slopes 

 outperformed those on 

 south slopes, but there 

 was little difference be- 

 tween bareroot and 

 containers. 

 Containers showed 

 superior survival and 

 height growth over 

 bareroot seedlings. 



Containers showed 

 superior survival and 

 height growth over 

 bareroot seedlings. 



Containerized seedling 

 survival and height 

 growth was superior on 

 the moister site while 

 bareroot seedlings sur- 

 vived and grew best on 

 the drier site.
