LapÂpen offers conifers and decidÂuÂous trees, either grown in the open air or trained as topÂiÂaries, with trunk cirÂcumÂferÂences of up to 140 cenÂtimeÂtres and overÂall heights of up to 14 metres, the proÂfesÂsionÂal plant grower’s portÂfoÂlio also ranges from mighty bizarre pines and umbrelÂla-shaped mulÂti-stemmed trees, through to trees with low branchÂes that just invite to be climbed, and trees with masÂsive, striÂatÂed trunks. In addiÂtion to the extenÂsive open-air assortÂment of over 400,000 trees, there is also a year-round choice of excluÂsive conÂtainerÂised plants.
The traÂdiÂtionÂal firm mainÂtains a wide assortÂment of plants in coconut fibre rootÂballs or Air-Pots for garÂdenÂers who like to make sponÂtaÂneous purÂchasÂes. These trees can also be plantÂed outÂside the dorÂmanÂcy periÂod, for examÂple on conÂstrucÂtion sites that have been delayed or that are only accesÂsiÂble at cerÂtain times in summer.
High-qualÂiÂty comÂmerÂcial goods, which LapÂpen proÂcures from partÂner tree nursÂeries, proÂducÂers and growÂers, comÂplete the range of plants on offer – these may include greenÂery, bulbs for plantÂiÂng out, hedgÂing eleÂments, rosÂes, perenÂniÂals, shrubs and Bambusoideae.
The strength of the LapÂpen assortÂment lies in the fact that the tree nursÂery is conÂtinÂuÂousÂly expandÂing its broad range of products.
FirstÂly, in order to be able to idenÂtiÂfy new trends in horÂtiÂculÂture and secÂondÂly, to preÂpare ourÂselves for adaptÂing to changÂing cliÂmatÂic conÂdiÂtions. In the process, LapÂpen is not only reactÂing to cliÂmate change, but also to increasÂingÂly dense develÂopÂment in urban areas, and is adaptÂing its assortÂment accordingly .
This is apparÂent, among othÂers, in the area of decidÂuÂous trees: Acer (maple), Alnus (alder), BetuÂla (birch), Fagus (beech), FraxÂiÂnus AmerÂiÂcana (ash), CoryÂlus (hazel), Juglans (walÂnut), Malus (crab apple), PlaÂtanus (plane), Tilia (lime), Ulmus (elm), fruit and many more plants make up a rich selecÂtion of difÂferÂent variÂeties. This means that LapÂpen cusÂtomers are not limÂitÂed to selectÂing from a wide assortÂment of oak variÂeties alone, but also have a very comÂpreÂhenÂsive choice when it comes to the Prunus (ornaÂmenÂtal cherÂry) and Malus (crab apple).
The LowÂer Rhine-based tree nursÂery also knows how to impress when it comes to conifÂerÂous trees. The plant speÂcialÂist offers variÂeties that have high ornaÂmenÂtal valÂue for parks and green spaces. Their wide range of shapes and colours furÂtherÂmore offers excepÂtionÂal potenÂtial for the most varÂied cliÂmatÂic zones and they can be used in all types of projects: from demandÂing domesÂtic garÂdens right through to urban mega-projects.
