Pots for cultivation of conifers
Pots designed for cultivation of conifers
Nursery pots – pots for conifers
Growing miniature varieties of coniferous trees and shrubs is currently very popular. Nursery farms and garden centres are recording exceptional interest in offering evergreen trees to decorate gardens, terraces and even smaller balconies. Proper development of conifers in a pot is possible provided that the right growing conditions are provided. Conifer pots must have certain characteristics that will ensure the seedlings planted in them grow freely, healthily and look beautiful. Conifer pots are suitable for the cultivation of tui, Christmas trees, pines, spruces, cedars, cypresses and metasequoias. These plants can be grown above ground or the pot can be buried in the ground. Its innovative specially adapted design ensures optimal water drainage and air flow.
Conifer nursery pots with a unique design
DonKwiat conifer nursery pots have a set of unique features that provide conifers with the right growing conditions. The pot has openwork perforated walls and an adapted bottom which allow the right amount of water to pass through preventing excessive standing water at the bottom of the pot. Standing water can lead to root rot the growth of mould, fungi or other unfavourable micro-organisms. There are special grooves in the bottom of the flowerpot which easily drain water to the outside. The pentagonal shape of the pot allows for easy cutting of protruding roots which has a visual aspect but additionally stimulates their growth. The pot can be used for above-ground cultivation as well as buried in the ground which will ensure that the seedling takes up valuable minerals and nutrients straight from the soil indefinitely. In addition the plant’s thin roots can escape outside the pot thanks to small holes in the walls. The raised bottom of the pot provides aeration from below, which is important for standard cultivation.

Properties:
Innovative pots for conifers have openings on the whole lateral surface. The pot can be dug into the ground. Then, thanks to the holes, the plant has unlimited access to nutrients contained in the soil, which affect its healthy growth. Thin roots of a buried plant can “exit” beyond the pot and draw the ingredients directly from the soil. In the case of ground cultivation, the roots have free access to air. The bottom with the holes is raised, it facilitates aeration of the roots from the bottom. Side openings drain water so that it does not collect on the bottom of the pot. The wide rim allows convenient carrying of the container.
The pentagonal shape of the container allows for easy cutting of protruding roots.
RS7.5C and RS10C pots are registered community designs.

Effortless machine planting and optimal stacking
The side walls have the right angle of inclination, thanks to which the pots come out “smoothly” one from the other during the machine feeding of pots.
An additional advantage of inclined walls is the efficient stacking of products that allows for economical storage and optimization of transport costs.
The smooth surface of the outer walls reduces friction when removing pots.
1. Step on the wall increases stiffnes of the pot
2. The machine’s edge enables the pot to be picked up by the machine – featured in all our pots
3. A double wall step increases stiffness – featured in selected pot models
