Transplanting large, mature trees is a delicate and technically demanding process that allows the preservation of valuable green infrastructure during construction or landscape redevelopment. Natura A.E. undertakes these operations with precision and care, employing specialist methods to ensure the safe relocation and survival of large trees in their new environments.
Transplanting of large trees is carried out in cases where tree removal is not desired due to environmental, aesthetic, or cultural value.
Depending on the size and species of the tree, a special deep circular root cutting procedure is performed. After a suitable waiting period that allows root adaptation, the tree is transferred to a prepared site equipped with appropriate infrastructure to support its re-establishment.
Securing the transplanted tree properly in its new location is a critical factor in ensuring its long-term health and stability.
