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 2, French, - trou%20de%20plantation

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 3, French, - trou%20de%20plantation%20d%27arbre
