9 X 8" Anderson Polycan

The Anderson Polycan is a durable, open-bottom container designed to promote strong, healthy root systems in nursery and field-grown trees. This polycan features Anderson’s signature cross-bottom design, which allows roots to air prune naturally as they reach the base, preventing circling and encouraging lateral branching for more resilient transplants.

Widely used in commercial tree propagation and long-cycle bedding plant production, the sturdy plastic construction holds up under repeated use and shifting environmental conditions. Its deep profile provides ample volume for developing roots, while the open base improves drainage and soil oxygen levels—essential for healthy growth in greenhouses, nurseries, or outdoor plots.

Growers rely on this size for fruit trees, ornamentals, and larger perennial starts where robust root development is essential before transplant. Whether used in nursery benches or field setups, the Anderson Polycan helps create transplant-ready plants with well-balanced structure below the surface.
