Japanese maple came wrapped with clay

We bought two Japanese maple trees from Home Depot. When we pulled it out of the pot we noticed that the root was wrapped with some sort of clay and held together with a rice sack material.

We removed the plastic ties that held the rice sack material but left the clay that surrounded the root. Were we supposed to leave that? Is it there for protection or to hold water during transport?
