the Growing Process
New Seasons,
New Plantings,
Living Soil
Each year, new species and cultivars are added through exchanges, specialised nurseries, or in-house propagation. Before planting, soil conditions are carefully adjusted to meet the needs of each plant, with attention to drainage, pH, and nutrients, while also considering overall landscape composition.
Healthy soil forms the basis of successful growth. The arboretum uses natural methods such as composting, wood-chip mulching, and leaf mould to improve soil structure, retain moisture, reduce weeds, and support beneficial soil life, creating a resilient and sustainable growing environment.
Here, in our Arboretum, growth begins with living soil, water, and care for the landscape.
Continuity of the Collection
The arboretum gradually adapts to warmer, drier summers and increasingly unstable weather conditions. Species selection and planting strategies are continuously adjusted with emphasis on vitality, resilience, and long-term stability. Through observation and careful adaptation, the collection evolves while remaining sustainable for future conditions.
Biodiversity & Ecological Balance
A diverse structure of trees, shrubs, and flowering plants supports insects and small birds throughout the year. These relationships help maintain ecological balance and strengthen the overall resilience of the garden. Biodiversity is treated as an active and essential part of the growing process.
Water in the Landscape
Water and vegetation are managed as interconnected systems supporting long-term stability of the arboretum. Rainwater retention, permeable surfaces, and planting structures help regulate moisture, reduce heat stress, and improve microclimatic conditions.
Blue–green infrastructure strengthens ecological resilience while supporting sustainable landscape management.
