Leafland trees are unique in that they are grown on our property in a typically windy
Leafland is operating from two sites: our original block in 1 Roberts Line, where we have approximately 10 Palmerston North. We are also subject to cold winters and this environment helps make
acres of trees, and our new 20 acre block at Whakarongo which is approximately 3 km away (see map on
a hardier plant, compared to one grown in a sheltered environment. Typical Leafland
page 156). This does bring logistical challenges, but is only 3 minutes’ drive away. Our long term plan is
to move the entire nursery to the Whakarongo site. We have again increased our stock levels as we have customers include councils, property developers, landscapers, tree surgeons, golf
experienced good demand for the past 12 months. courses, and schools.
One of Leafland's initiatives is the air-prune, side-slot, pot-growing system (see the Pro-Pot video on our
website). We feel it is a greener and greater way to grow trees. The concept is that the plastic pots have
many air holes around the perimeter, which draw the roots out, and then when the roots reach the air, they
stop running and spread new roots, effectively making a fibrous root system which establishes quickly into
its new site. At the point of dispatch, we will take off the pot (which are reusable) and ship out the trees in a
decomposable, biodegradable, hessian transport bag, so the tree planter has no rubbish to dispose of. We
are very keen to get trees growing in these and are willing to take forward orders for 2020/2021 and grow
trees on contract, so please contact us to discuss this ground breaking sustainable idea. We believe in the
future that all councils will require street and park trees to be grown using this method.
Our staff number is around 20 staff now, and we are fortunate to have on our team many experienced
nursery workers.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank all our loyal customers for your on-going custom and
support in the past years and we look forward to supplying you with quality specimen trees in the near
future.
All the best for 2020,
Ben Currie & all the Tree Team at Leafland Tree Nursery

PRO-POTS ADVANCED GROWING SYSTEM HOW IT WORKS
View our informative video at leafland.co.nz/pro-pots
Leafland is aware of the need to look more closely at container growing methods used for
advanced-grade trees in New Zealand. We understand how important it is that a tree has
a good healthy root system which will quickly establish to ensure the tree won't fail.
Our growing method had to be the most practical, sustainable, and cost-effective way to
grow advanced-grade trees that will also meet the customers expectations and remain
price competitive. The search resulted in our development and use of Pro-Pots. These
pots produce an air pruned root system, which prevents curling root systems. They are 1. Tree grown in our nursery 2. Pot is removed
easy to use as no assembly is required. Leafland grows trees in 25L, 35L, 45L, 60L, and
100L Pro-Pots. At dispatch, we remove the trees from the pots and put the root ball into
a biodegradable, hessian, easy-lift bag for planting. These hessian transport bags can
be planted into the ground and will decompose within a few months. The pots will be
washed and recycled, making this system a far superior and sustainable way to grow
advanced-grade trees.
3. Placed in hessian bag with fertiliser tablets 4. Tree is planted with hessian bag
From left to right: 35L, 45L, 60L, 100L Above fibrous root structure from a plant potted in a Pro-
Pot. Roots grow outward rather than being tangled around
the plant as in a bagged plant.
