FAQs for Buying Improved Cultivars Online

What are improved cultivars?

Improved cultivars are special types of plants that have been carefully selected and bred by experts to have better qualities than regular plants (or the "standard species" of their variety). These qualities can include things like better fruit production, improved disease resistance, and faster growth. The goal of creating improved cultivars is to make plants that are healthier, more productive, and easier to grow—for home gardeners and professionals alike!

Why should you buy improved cultivars?

Improved cultivars often provide better results than regular plants. For example, if you’re growing fruit trees, improved cultivars might give you a bigger harvest, meaning more food for you. They may be drought-tolerant, requiring less water to thrive, or be less likely to have issues from pests or diseases. Certain varieties may be bred to be non-invasive, or to stay smaller and more compact. Overall, improved cultivars can make gardening easier, more rewarding and less stressful.

Are improved cultivars more expensive?

Improved cultivars can sometimes be a bit more expensive than regular plants. This is because a lot of time and effort goes into developing these plants to have better qualities! However, many people find that the benefits they offer, such as higher yields or less need for pesticides, make them worth the extra cost. In the long run, improved cultivars can save you money by being more productive and requiring less maintenance. Be sure to check out our plants & trees on sale for improved cultivars and other varieties at a discount!

Are improved cultivars good for the environment?

Yes, improved cultivars can be good for the environment. Many of these plants are bred to use resources like water more efficiently, or to resist pests without needing a lot of chemical treatments. Additionally, improved cultivars that produce more food on the same amount of land can help reduce the need to clear more land for farming, which is good for preserving natural habitats.
