A Message to our Customers

Dear Customer,

We are holding our seedling prices at last years rates. The economy has hit all of us and this is our way to try to stimulate the economy. Itasca Greenhouse specializes in Northern hardy seed sources and we would be happy to supply your seedling needs.

Order early, as we are selling more and more of our stock each year. Even with the new greenhouse addition, we are selling out of some of the more popular tree species. Many of our customers are ordering earlier each year and more are having us custom or contract grow seedlings to meet their needs.

Get your trees off to a good start by using Mycorrhizal inoculants, weed barrier mats, anti-transpirants. Many of our repeat customers are using the Mycoapply Soluble Maxx and find that they can overcome losses due to unexpected environmental stress and get their seedlings off to a good start. Mycorrhizal Inoculants stay with the tree for the rest of the trees' life, growing with the tree, supplying nutrients and buffering the trees from environmental stress.

Are you getting mad at the deer and other animals browsing on your trees? We offer browse deterrents, including spray on repellents (Plantskydd and Tree Guard), tree shelters, bud cap netting and deer net fence. We are now handling a new deer net fence that installs vertically and is quite effective in directing deer away from your trees.

This last year Eco Planet approached us about doing a documentary on Itasca Greenhouse. It has been exciting and an honor to have been selected for this documentary. You can review it at www.itascagreenhouse.com/documentary.html.

The demand for our tree seedlings packaged for special occasions continues to grow. Be Green! Consider using our packaged trees for promotions, weddings, funerals, and other special occasions by giving a gift that grows and helps to enhance our environment. Let our experienced staff help personalize your special occasions with specially packaged tree seedlings.

Visitors are always welcome to tour our unique greenhouse (please call to schedule a tour). Questions? Drop by our booth at numerous trade shows, e-mail us or call. Our experienced staff will be glad to help you.

Sincerely, William R. Sayward President / Chief Weeder
