Establishment of trees

Avoiding greenwasting

Planting a tree is a significant investment, and the goal should always be for the trees to reach their full expected lifespan at their intended location. By developing thorough documentation and systematically evaluating what went wrong in previous projects, we can effectively avoid “greenwashing” —that is, investing in greenery that won’t have the opportunity to take root and thrive in the long term.

Services

We help you ensure successful tree establishment with the following services:

  • Establishment Inventory and Analysis: Using existing records of past tree plantings, we can conduct a detailed inventory. We examine how the trees have established themselves and document all factors that may have negatively affected their establishment. This results in a report with concrete recommendations on how you can improve your trees’ chances of establishing themselves in the future.
  • Detailed planting descriptions: We develop specific descriptions for all key steps in the establishment process, including:
    • Tree Selection: Guidance on choosing the right tree species that thrive in the specific location and meet the project's objectives.
    • Planting Size: Guidelines on the optimal size of trees at planting for best establishment.
    • Mulching: Recommendations for suitable mulching materials that promote tree health.
    • Caring for Newly Planted Trees: Detailed instructions to ensure that newly planted trees receive the care they need during their first, critical years.

This is summarized in a report containing specific recommendations on the measures that should be taken to improve opportunities for new businesses to establish themselves.

Let’s work together to give your trees the best possible start and help create a sustainable, green environment for many years to come. Would you like to learn more about how we can help you avoid greenwashing in your projects?
