ABSTRACT:
A simplified low maintenance planter for seedling trees includes rear laterally adjustable wheels which support the body of the planter and also serve to pack the soil around the trees after planting. A pair of coulter wheels slightly forwardly of and laterally inwardly of the packing wheels are toed inwardly and tilted toward the center line of the planter so as to move soil away from the center line of the machine during the formation of two parallel furrows. Workers seated inwardly of the coulter wheels and soil packing wheels take seedling plants from boxes at the interior sides of the worker compartments and place them one at a time in the furrows. The planter is equipped with a hitch mechanism which is operable to elevate the planter body and coulter wheels to a roadway transport position.
