The Status of Container Planting Programs in Canada - Ontario

Containerized planting stock has been used operationally in Ontario for 17 years with varying degrees of success. The program has expanded slowly and now produces 15million seedlings annually or 18% of all stock planted on Crown lands in the province. Several types of greenhouse and container system are used; among the latter, the Japanese paperpot system is the most common. Six production centres are operated by the province, but future expansion is expected to be mainly in the private sector.
