The root systems of Chalet Farm-grown plants are larger, stronger, and healthier due to the extra space allowing them to spread out and absorb the necessary nutrients from our lake-irrigated land. Many of our plants are even allowed an extra year to grow before we offer them for sale, giving our customers a hardier, more robust plant. Since our plants are already climatized to the unique weather and soil conditions of the Chicagoland area, they are guaranteed to succeed when planted in your garden.
