Ready for their new location

Every planting project begins with a precise soil analysis. We pay particular attention to ensuring sufficient soil infiltration, as well as an appropriate grain size distribution and pH level. Furthermore, the site's exposure to light and wind—whether sunny, partially shaded, or exposed—must meet the ecological requirements of the tree species.


The result is a reliable site profile that serves as the basis for targeted recommendations.

When selecting suitable tree species under changing climatic conditions, it is essential to consider biodiversity, tolerance to drought and waterlogging, water retention, and the cooling effect provided by shade. Additionally, characteristics such as lifespan, growth habit, leaf shape, fruit production, and autumn foliage play an important role in the overall design.

Careful site preparation is crucial to ensure healthy development. This includes measures for site improvement, professional preparation of the planting pit, and ensuring adequate soil aeration. The addition of suitable tree substrates or materials rich in humic substances optimises soil structure. All measures are carried out in a soil-friendly manner with a focus on the long-term development of the tree.

Before planting, the root ball is carefully inspected and the overall condition of the tree is documented. This involves assessing the root structure, moisture levels, and vitality. In addition, any potential injuries or calluses are checked to ensure the quality of the planting material and to provide optimal conditions for successful establishment.

When unloading, tree-friendly handling is the top priority. The trunk, crown, and root ball are carefully protected. Impacts or pressure on the trunk are strictly avoided.

Tailored to the size of the tree and the site conditions, appropriate lifting, securing, and support equipment is used to position the tree in a controlled, tension-free manner and to ensure its structural stability until planting.

The planting process is carried out carefully, professionally, and with precise positioning in the prepared planting pit. Special attention is paid to the correct planting depth, the vertical alignment of the trunk, and uniform soil contact throughout the entire root ball area. This is the only way to ensure sufficient oxygen supply and thus an optimal start in the new environment.

Immediately after planting, a rehabilitation zone is established and root-promoting substances are added to support fine-root development. This aids in the development of a strong, deep-reaching, and resilient root system. Subsequently, a watering ring with organic mulch is created to ensure water supply and soil moisture. An adapted crown pruning balances the root mass and leaf mass, supporting the tree's physiological stabilisation. Depending on the size of the tree being planted, a stake or cable tree support system is installed alongside trunk protection to support upright and secure growth. Finally, the root ball is watered in thoroughly to ensure proper soil contact.

In the first few years after planting, continuous and professional establishment and development care are crucial for the tree's successful growth. This includes regular watering, monitoring of growth and root ball stability, and needs-based crown maintenance. These measures promote the development of a stable root system, ensure the tree's vitality, and guarantee its long-term functionality within urban and landscape environments.
