I was at the Philadelphia show last week talking to some of the major 
exhibitors and designers. For the most part, the larger trees and shrubs 
are simply shredded.  The herbaceous and annual material is mostly thrown 
away.  It is only the odd rarity (not many rare trees there) that is taken 
back to the nursery and put back into the forcing greenhouse.
