We recommend that you collect your tree within a day of reaching the pickup location.
The distance selling law does not apply to living trees, but we take responsibility for transport damage if you send a picture within a day of its arrival at the pickup location.Have your camera ready while opening the box. Subsequent images or images taken after the tree is fully unpacked will not be accepted.

Outdoor Trees
The Aleppo Pine is found in almost the entire Mediterranean region and is hardy and fast-growing. To create beautiful trees, it should be given a bit of space, as the long needles can otherwise give it slightly poor proportions. The Aleppo Pine has a peculiarity compared to other species, in that it has a young and a mature growth habit.
Weather and Wind
Aleppo Pine loves the sun, and all healthy trees can stand in full sun.
It is also frost-resistant and can be placed outdoors in the southern parts of the country. It also thrives in a cold unheated greenhouse.
Repotting
Aleppo-tallen is like other pines, very resilient, and you rarely need to repot it. 2 – 4 years for younger trees, less frequently for older trees. Leave parts of the root ball completely untouched. That is, do not wash the soil from the roots. Pines depend on symbiosis with certain fungi that should not be washed away.
Use well-draining soil, preferably with 30 – 50% lava sand, together with pumice and a smaller amount of akadama.
Fertilization
Halepensis needs relatively little fertilizer. However, a bit more fertilizer can achieve the youthful needle structure, which can be a goal in itself…
Pruning
Halepensis produces shorter internodes and the possibility of more frequent pruning if the tree is fertilized regularly. If fertilized more gently, it should be pruned fewer times during the summer.
Wiring
Wire the tree late in the season when the growing season is over or just before spring growth for the best results.
Sending plants requires timing, robust packaging, suitable weather, and communication between us.
