How deep should containers be for tree seedlings?

Current trends for container depth are towards a more squat shape. This shape clearly offers a reduced risk of root deformation during planting. There is no evidence to indicate a benefit under common plantation conditions from a very long root plug. A depth up to 2.2 times container depth and an overall depth generally less then 90mm is now commonly accepted.
