Plant of the week:
Autumn Nut Trees |
|
|
Autumn is the best season to plant trees and shrubs. Planting now means that the soil is still warm enough to allow the roots to establish progressively before the frost, ensuring a vigorous growth in spring.
|
|
|
1. Hazel Nut (Corylus avellana)
|
|
Hazel Nut trees are a must have as they offer one of the first blooming in the year - catkins in the heart of winter - and abundant harvests in autumn.
Our tip : Hazel Nut trees are often self-fertile, but to guarantee an abundant yield, it is always recommended to plant two different varieties - such as 'Merveille de Bolwiller' and 'Fertile de Coutard' - less than 20 metres one from the other, to ensure a good cross-pollination.

2. Walnut (Juglans regia)
|
|
The Walnut tree is tall and majestic and requires a lot of space. But it will reward you with fruits of exceptionally nutritious qualities as they are rich in Omega-3.
Our tip : The Walnut tree does not tolerate summer drought, mainly when fruit is forming. Make sure to water regularly during the first years of its life to ensure a good root system.
|
|
|
3. Chestnut (Castanea sativa)
|
|
The Chestnut tree is emblematic of mountain areas and needs certain soil conditions to thrive. It is acidophile, which means that it needs deep and well-drained acidic soil (low pH).
Our tip : Just like for the Hazel Nut, most Chestnut trees are more productive when there is another variety nearby for cross-pollination.
