Aachen blooms: 450 new trees for the city until February!

At the beginning of October, the Aachen city operations set a green signal: Over 450 new trees will be planted in the city by February! The tree planting season has opened and will include many different tree species, including handle oaks, tulip trees and ornamental cherry trees. The plantings take place at numerous locations in Aachen, including in Hansmannstrasse and Röhrigstraße.

In order to create optimal growth conditions, extensive preparations have already been made. Old floors were removed and filled with a special tree substrate. The selection of the tree species not only takes into account the soil quality, but also climatic challenges such as heat and drought. In the past few months, employees had already worked on the care of around 120,000 trees to keep the city green in the future. In view of diseases and storm damage, planting new trees is an important measure, which is to be expanded in the coming years in order to promote nature in Aachen sustainably according to information from www.t-online.de .
