26.11.: Climate trees: Obtaining first-class seeds
Climate trees: first-class seeds for sale
Many interesting climarobust species have been supplied. For example Ostrya carpinifolia, the European hop hornbeam. It thrives in large parts of the Mediterranean region, from Provence to Greece. The almond tree (Prunus dulcis) is of course also interesting and a real eye-catcher. Who doesn’t dream of it? To have a beautifully flowering almond tree in your garden (as a potted plant) in spring. Mediterranean flair in your own home. Or the olive (Olea europaea), which is usually found in Italy, Spain or Greece. The climate is changing rapidly. Of course, global warming is not good at all, but for the flora it means that many “climate trees” are now also migrating to Central Europe. And they are still guaranteed hot and dry summers.
Of course, there can still be freezing cold winters, so always bear the “hardiness zone” in mind when growing plants. Many species from hot regions are therefore better grown in pots that can be brought indoors in January, for example, if necessary. Something like this can look wonderful: A large terracotta pot and an almond tree, a caper bush or a chestnut tree in it. It creates the flair of a vacation in Tuscany, Sicily or southern Spain. And of course you are contributing to diversity.
Growing plants “from seed” is a great pleasure, and then there are the climatic trees 🙂 You look after the little seedlings, are happy when they get bigger, at some point they form the first buds, create the first shade growth…Wonderful.
Here is a brief overview
E.G. we now have: Pistachio tree (Pistacia vera)
Feijoa sellowiana (Brazilian guava)
Calycanthus floridus (true spice bush)
Cupressus arizonica (Arizonacypress)
Acacia dealbata (silver acacia)
Myrtus communis (myrtle)
Capparis spinosa (caper bush)
“Wild olive” (Olea europaea var oleaster)
Red horse chestnut (Aesculus carnea)
Black walnut (Juglans nigra)

Planting oak trees is a wonderful hobby. It’s a joy to see the little acorns sprout, to accompany the tender little plants, to nurture and care for them. One day they will grow up and grow old. They will outlive us and we will be able to leave something meaningful to the world.
Several oak species can live for well over 500 years, they provide food for many wild animals, they cool the environment, they can contribute to combating global warming. They provide life and can accompany us for a lifetime.
There is a lot to consider. The quality of the seed, the soil, the method of planting, liming, acidification, protection against too much water (or too little). It is a wonderful task to create and do something for the environment.
