What is an evergreen seedling plug?

Seedling plugs are shipped with a small, cohesive, bullet shaped "plug" of dirt into which the roots have grown, meaning they are not "bareroot" as with our traditional evergreen seedlings. The roots are therefore already established in that plug of dirt, and can begin putting out new root growth and new top growth fairly quickly. Bareroot seedlings, on the other hand, are shipped with no dirt, so they must get their roots reestablished in the new soil before they can begin putting on any significant new growth. Note: our plug seedlings are shipped in packs of 5, wrapped in plastic. They are not shipped in tubes or foam containers.
