FAQ - Frequently asked questions
Why you should buy large deciduous trees
Buying large deciduous trees has numerous advantages, both for the environment and for your own garden or public space.
- Immediate effect Large deciduous trees immediately add character and structure to a garden or landscape. They provide immediate shade, improve the microclimate and create a pleasant atmosphere without having to wait for years.
- Faster ecological benefits A mature deciduous tree immediately starts to bind CO₂, produce oxygen and improve air quality. Larger trees also provide quicker habitat for birds, insects and other animals.
- Robustness and resilience Larger deciduous trees are generally more resistant to external influences such as drought, storms or pests. They have already developed a strong root system, which helps them to adapt more quickly to their new environment.
- Increasing the value of the property A garden with mature trees looks well-kept and attractive. Large deciduous trees can increase the value of a property and at the same time increase the feel-good factor for residents and visitors.
- Energy savings The shade provided by large deciduous trees can reduce air conditioning costs in summer. In winter, they allow more light into the house through the leaf fall, which can reduce heating costs.
- Sustainability and long-term effect Although the initial costs may be higher, a large deciduous tree represents a long-term investment. It requires less maintenance because it has already reached a stable growth phase.
To summarise, large deciduous trees offer a perfect combination of aesthetic value, ecological benefits and sustainable benefits for people and nature. They are a worthwhile choice for anyone who wants to reap the benefits of a tree both immediately and in the long term.
How do you plant large deciduous trees?
Planting large trees requires careful preparation and implementation to ensure that the tree grows healthily and establishes itself well.
- Site selection Sufficient space for root and crown growth, soil type and quality, light conditions and possible obstacles such as buildings, power lines or other trees.
- Planting
- Planting hole The planting hole should be at least twice as wide and slightly deeper than the root ball of the tree to give the roots sufficient space.
- Planting the tree: Place the tree so that the root collar (transition from trunk to roots) is slightly above ground level. This prevents waterlogging and promotes healthy growth.
- Stabilisation - install stake protection or underfloor protection
- Water thoroughly: After planting, the tree should be watered generously to avoid air pockets in the soil and to supply the roots with water.
Additional tips
- Choose the right planting time, ideally in autumn or early spring when the tree is dormant.
- Work with experts or a landscaper when planting a particularly large tree to avoid heavy lifting and mistakes.
