Quality categories

Tree sorting classes


Well-rooted rootstocks, certified and selected budwood form the basis of trees and are characteristics of a high internal and external quality and good rooting. In order to ensure uniformity in the plants we supply, the trees are sorted into different quality classes according to their characteristics. An “8+” class denotes the highest quality plants that have more than 8 strong shoots and an extraordinary trunk diameter.

All trees are available as KNIP or as a 1-year old tree.
