Plant Native, Get Back to Your Roots tee, Nature t-shirt for conservation, Environmental science gift for ecological teachers & gardeners.

A group of naturalist scientists researched root formations by excavating various plants, then painstakingly drawing their systems. The roots on this shirt are from the fleabane plant*. The scientists posited a great question. How do native plants thrive in soils that exotic plants barely survive in?

I love roots. As a little girl I would wonder at how trees reflected the branches above them. It all created a sense of completion, like the satisfaction of a perfect circle. This shirt also has that satisfying feel. The roots cascade as beautifully as a weeping willow. The design is tight, about 8.5" across (at size large), so as not to shout, but instead draw someone into your world of loving nature at all her levels. Hopefully when you wear it, conversations will spark. Many people don't understand the terminology of what a native plant is. Once they learn, it can plant the seed inside them to bring more into their own yards.

This classic unisex jersey short sleeve tee fits like a well-loved favorite. Soft cotton and quality print make users fall in love with it over and over again. These t-shirts have-ribbed knit collars to bolster shaping. The shoulders have taping for better fit over time. Dual side seams hold the garment's shape for longer.
