Itasca Greenhouse grows 2-3 million containerized tree seedlings in three crops per year. With our greenhouses utilizing co-generation heat from our local power station, and with our management efficiency, we are able to produce high quality containerized seedlings at low cost. In business for over 30 years, Itasca Greenhouse has grown to be a nationally known, trusted source for hardy containerized tree seedlings.
Plug seedlings offer many advantages including high survival rates, longer planting season, increased flexibility of planting schedule, and no planting check since the roots are protected in the soil plug and are planted with roots essentially undisturbed. Custom and contract growing services are available to our customers who want specific trees grown.

We would like to thank all of you for your continued patronage for the last year. As each year passes, this one being more challenging than most, we are continuing to add new ideas and products to our business, and taking the opportunity to hear what our customers want from us. You may have also noticed that a few varieties are missing from this year's listing.
Our price lists on pages 4-10 list planting requirements to help you make the correct choice. Preparing the planting site - Survival rates for containerized tree seedlings are good on all sites including rough sites. However, weed control can help them off to a good start. This can be accomplished by herbicides and/or mowing.
