Moana Farm: Canby, Oregon

Healthy trees begin with strong, vibrant roots. When you choose a Moana Grown tree, you can expect a root system that is healthy, with roots that are white or tan, lush, abundant, and thick enough to hold the shape of the pot.

Let’s compare a Moana Grown #7 ornamental pear tree to the same tree you might find at a local box store. The differences become apparent when examining the trees closely. The branches of the Moana Grown tree are stronger and more substantial, resulting in a more balanced and even canopy. In contrast, the branches of the tree from the box store may appear thin and less developed.

Another noticeable difference is the trunk of the tree. The Moana Grown tree features a straighter and sturdier trunk, providing better structural integrity. On the other hand, the trunk of the box store tree may be crooked and fragile, lacking the robustness that is essential for long-term growth and stability. Additionally, the Moana Grown tree typically has a trunk caliber of at least 1″, indicating a more mature and well-established tree.

When it comes to the root structure, the Moana Grown tree showcases healthy and thriving roots. These roots are not only well-formed but also moist and packed in a rich, fertile growing medium. In contrast, the root structure of the box store tree may be crumbling, dry, and packed in a clay-like material, which can be detrimental to the overall health and growth of the tree.
