Abstract: A plant root management and protection system configured for embedding within a dug pit, the system comprising: a sidewall peripherally defining a receiving internal cavity and having (i) a top opening dimensioned to receive a root ball of a plant therethrough, and (ii) a bottom opening defined by a peripheral edge of the sidewall; and at least one root-guiding extension extending outwardly from the sidewall and perpendicularly to a longitudinal axis of the sidewall, wherein each of the at least one root-guiding extensions defines an open-ended hollow passageway in communication with the cavity; wherein, when embedded a dug pit, the longitudinal axis of the sidewall is upright and the top opening does not extend above surface level, and wherein at least a vertical portion of the sidewall ending with the peripheral edge is configured for entrenching in a bottom surface of the pit.

Abstract: A system having an elongated body defining a hollow passageway therethrough, which includes as a first opening disposed about a longitudinal upper half of the elongated body, and at least two second openings disposed about longitudinal side zones of the elongated body, wherein each of the at least two second opening has an area of between 80 and 700 cm2.
