/ˈbɛərˌruːt/
I bought bare-root roses and planted them in early spring.
我买了裸根玫瑰,在早春把它们种下。
Because bare-root trees dry out quickly, keep the roots moist and plant them as soon as possible after delivery.
由于裸根树苗很容易失水,收到后要保持根部湿润,并尽快栽种。
由 bare(“裸的、无覆盖的”)+ root(“根”)构成的园艺用语,强调植物根系没有被土壤或容器包裹。该表达在苗圃与园艺栽植说明中广泛使用,用来区分 container-grown(盆栽/容器苗)与 balled-and-burlapped(带土球包裹苗)等类型。
