Container plants from the nursery!
We have planted many of our trees and shrubs in containers and AirPots®, so that you can still access our Lorenz von Ehren trees and shrubs for your building projects!
All these gems are planted in high-quality substrate in our container area and are professionally cared for. So, why think twice, come and have a look, be amazed and place your order. You can then decide whether you want to plant them or leave them in a container.
Our yard is full of plants - spoilt for choice!
“Whether sensational pear trees, dreamy maple or your favourite tree, with the right substrate, a suitable container and the appropriate care, there really is nothing to be said against mobile plant husbandry - temporary or permanent."
Jan Lüdemann, responsible for the container area, Lorenz von Ehren Nursery
FAQ - Frequently asked questions
Can I plant my tree directly from the AirPot® into my garden?
Yes. Whereas with conventional pots you often have to cut the ring roots so that they can take root in the soil, an AirPot® tree already has perfectly prepared root tips. As soon as the tree is planted, these spread out radially into the surrounding soil. The survival rate is close to 100%.
Is the black colour of the AirPots® a problem in hot weather?
Black absorbs sunlight and can cause the root ball to heat up significantly when exposed to direct sunlight. However, as trees usually have a crown that shades the pot, this is less of a problem than with small plants. In summer, you can wrap the AirPot® in a light-coloured mat or jute if necessary to keep the roots cool.
Can AirPots® be cleaned and reused?
AAbsolutely! One major advantage is sustainability. As AirPots® can be rolled out flat, they are easy to clean with a brush or a high-pressure washer. This is particularly important if a tree has been affected by disease, to ensure that no pathogens are passed on to the next plant.
