Plantation en butte. Cette méthode est appliquée en sol tourbeux. [Lors] du creusement des fossés de drainage, le gazon ou la tourbe sont découpés en mottes qui sont retournées sur le terrain et constituent des buttes alignées. L'opération doit se pratiquer au moins quelques mois à l'avance, de façon à provoquer la décomposition de la végétation et à assurer une continuité entre le sol en place et la butte. Les jeunes arbres sont ensuite plantés dans cette butte soit en fente, soit en trou. 1, record 5, French, - plantation%20en%20butte

Plantation en trous [...] Elle est valable pour tous les terrains. Son gros avantage est d’ameublir un volume du sol supérieur au volume de l'enracinement. Les trous sont préparés à l'avance si on a le temps. [...] Il faut veiller à disposer les racines dans une position naturelle, les couvrir en premier lieu de la terre végétale et bien tasser au fur et à mesure du remplissage du trou. L'outil habituel est la bêche. 1, record 6, French, - plantation%20en%20trous

Successful tree planting begins in the tree nursery with bimonthly cultivating, pruning of roots, and fertilization. This is essential to assure healthy trees and compact root structure. Planting holes for bare-root trees should be large enough to receive roots when they are spread in a natural position. Planting holes for balled and burlapped trees should be 2 feet wider than the root ball. Ideally, holes should be as wide and deep as can conveniently be made, so that the tree can be placed at the same levels as it originally grew in the nursery. 2, record 7, English, - tree%20planting

Plantation d’arbres. Les trous de plantation seront ouverts plusieurs semaines à l'avance si possible puis rebouchés(terre végétale d’apport en mauvais terrain) après avoir ameubli le fond et placé un tuteur enfoncé dans le sol ferme. L'importance de chaque excavation doit être de l'ordre de 1 à 2 mètres cubes suivant l'état du terrain et la nature du sujet prévu à cet endroit. En mauvais sol(plantation avec apport de terre), il faut prévoir 3 à 5 mètres cubes par arbre. La profondeur du trou de préparation se situe entre 1 mètre et 1, 20 m. Lors de la plantation, on ouvrira juste le trou nécessaire à la mise en place du sujet. 3, record 7, French, - plantation%20d%26rsquo%3Barbres

Trous de plantation. Plus ou moins importants suivant le végétal à mettre en place, les terres remuées sont en général réutilisées après le défoncement pour combler le trou.(...) plus la fouille sera volumineuse, mieux le végétal se développera. Dans le cas où les terres sont de trop mauvaise qualité ou de qualité impropre à la culture donnée(...) les terres sont évacuées ou épandues sur le terrain. Sauf pour les trous de plantation d’arbres importants et de bacs, ces terrassements sont exécutés à la main. 1, record 9, French, - trou%20de%20plantation%20d%26rsquo%3Barbre
