Autumn planting season begins

Autumn is an ideal time for planting, according to Pépinières Bisontines, a nursery based in Besançon. The nursery provides a wide range of plants to help customers refresh their outdoor spaces, create hedges, or plan for a future orchard.

Wide selection of fruit trees

The nursery offers over 700 fruit trees, including cherry, apple, pear, and apricot varieties. These trees are available in both decorative and edible forms, making them suitable for a variety of gardening goals.

Ornamental and hedge plants available

In addition to fruit trees, the nursery offers more than 200 varieties of ornamental and hedge plants. These include laurels, cypresses, elaeagnus, and photinia, with prices starting at 5.50 €. The nursery aims to make gardening more accessible through new production methods.

Complete planting and removal service

Pépinières Bisontines provides a full service for removing old plants and planting new ones. This includes disposal of old plants, allowing customers to manage their entire gardening project through a single contact.

Tax benefits for some maintenance

Some green space maintenance services may qualify for a tax benefit, with individuals eligible for a 50% tax credit for certain routine maintenance works. However, the creation or landscaping of gardens generally does not qualify for this benefit.

Floral arrangements for All Saints’ Day

As All Saints’ Day approaches, the nursery prepares floral arrangements for decorating graves. These include chrysanthemums, heathers, and other seasonal plants, chosen for their durability and aesthetic appeal.

Nursery's presence at cemeteries

The nursery will be present at cemeteries in Besançon from October 28 to November 2, 2026, offering ready-made or custom floral arrangements. The team will be available from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. during this period.

Professional maintenance services

David, a trained landscaper, provides green space maintenance services for individuals, condominiums, and businesses. Services include lawn mowing, hedge trimming, brush clearing, and green waste removal. Each service must be reviewed for tax benefit eligibility.
