Grow an Orchard 3-Pack – Three Tree Cutting Rooting Kits, with Curriculum & Worksheets (Save 15%)

Why root one tree when you can grow a whole orchard? This 3-pack bundles three of our tree cutting rooting kits at 15% off the price of buying them separately. Kids root three different trees side by side and compare which roots first, which grows fastest, and why.

The discount is already built into the price, so it works everywhere you shop with us, including ESA and school-choice marketplaces such as ClassWallet. No code needed.

What kids will learn

Grades K–5

• That some plants can grow from a piece of another plant, not only from seeds
• The jobs of stems, leaves and roots
• How to observe, measure and compare three plants over time
• How to care for living things with water, light and patience

Grades 6–12

• Asexual propagation: why each cutting grows into a genetic copy of its parent tree
• How rooting hormones (auxins) help a stem form new roots
• Running a comparison experiment across three species and controlling variables
• Recording and analyzing data in a science journal

Good to know

• Rooting tree cuttings is a real experiment. Rooting can take weeks to months, and not every cutting will root. Comparing results across three trees is part of the science.
• Several of these trees are warm-climate trees that don't tolerate frost, so in colder areas they do best in a sunny indoor spot.
