BUD CLIPS are soft aluminum clips that will ensure the straight initial growth of breaking buds on young trees in the nursery field, eliminating the crook that is common at the bottom of trees not properly straightened when growth starts.  The soft aluminum clip is easily applied early in the spring around the dormant bud and will expand as the young bud grows and enlarges into a shoot.  Bud clips will not girdle the tree.  Bud clips are easily removed and can be reused season after season.  Bud clips are especially useful where workers are not able to timely stake and straighten young shoots before the shoots "harden" and the crook cannot be easily straightened out.  Bud clips will help ensure a cosmetically attractive bud union.

SHIPPING CHARGES: When ordering supplies separately from trees, we will adjust the shipping to reflect the actual shipping costs.  Unfortunately our shipping estimator calculates UPS charges based on trees in big boxes.  Most small supplies and tools can be shipped Priority Mail, while larger tools and supplies will be shipped UPS, but charges will be based on the box sizes and weights.  We apologize for the confusion and inconvenience.
