We are always trying to optimize our process in order to guarantee the quality of our trees. Here we give you a look at our nursery and show you how we go in four steps from maiden to standard tree.
Step 1.
Planting:
We purchase young maidens so we can cultivate them to fully grown trees. During this process a number of aspects are important to obtain good starting material in our nursery.
- Cooperation with reliable suppliers
- Check and direct pruning of incoming plants, carried out by our staff
- Mechanical planting of trees, which are immediately provided with a Tonkin bamboo pole
- Fastening young plants to a Tonkin bamboo pole
Step 2.
Growing, the first three years in the nursery:
By paying sufficient attention to the purchase and planting of trees, we reduce the failure rate in the first year. It also allows our staff to focus on the growing of trees.
- Pruning and providing guidance to the leaders
- Continuous selection by our staff and inspection of external advisors
- Disease- and weed control
- Fertilization- and irrigation management
Step 3.
Lifting, from the third to the fifth years in the nursery:
When your order arrives to our office, a quality employee will select uniform trees for your project. Even before the trees are removed from the field, the wire baskets are tightly secured in order to protect the root system and the heads of the trees are tied together to prevent branch damage.
- Selecting, marking and labelling of plants by a quality employee
- Lifting and preparation of orders by experienced teams
- The latest lifting machines accelerate the ordering process
Step 4.
Completion and delivery
When the trees are collected from the field, we are already aware where the trees should be loaded onto the trucks. Before the loading begins, our chief checks the quality and completeness of the order.
- Controlling the purchase and labelling of plants
- Control of quality and completeness of the order
