Buy clothes and let NIKIN plant a tree: nice, but you'd rather do it yourself? Plant a tree at home in your garden? Or bring it as a Christmas gift to your loved ones in a pot? NIKIN makes it possible with the TreePlanting kits!
A big hello to all hobby foresters and to all those who will become one with our TreePlanting kits! With the new kits, planting your own tree has never been easier. With the step-by-step instructions, you'll have your own tree stand in no time.
How do I choose the right tree to plant?
It is particularly important to choose a tree that suits the climate. You should therefore give preference to native trees, which are usually easier to care for. It can also be worthwhile to plant so-called climate trees. These are more resistant to mild winters and dry summers and are therefore better equipped for climate change. You can find a selection of possible climate treeshere: . By the way, you can plant a green giant from spring to autumn, although experts recommend autumn.
What do I have to consider when planting a tree?
next When planting a tree, it is important to consider how much space you have available. As your tree can grow very large over the years, we recommend that you check how tall and how wide the chosen tree will grow on average. Also make sure that your tree does not encroach on your neighbours' garden when it is at full size (for the sake of neighbourhood peace...). Deciduous trees near windows can provide shade in summer and let in light in winter thanks to the falling leaves. Trees with a high crown are ideal for patio areas, so that the canopy is always above you. Take a few moments to find the right location and think about what you want.
Step by step instructions for planting a tree
Planting trees is super easy with the TreePlanting kits. You receive a bag with the seeds, plus special instructions. You should read these instructions carefully before planting the tree. For young seedlings, a location with plenty of light but no direct sunlight is ideal. next It is very important to keep the soil around the newly planted tree well watered and moist until the seeds germinate. You can choose between three different tree species in the TreePlanting kits: Nordmann fir, wild pear tree and bee tree.
