ABOUT

The Rizomatik Way is the way of the rhizome, an underground root giving rise continuously to new shoots and new growth. The rizomatik message - "We need trees - the planet needs trees." - is like a tree rhizome. It spreads and spreads, eventually giving rise to the defense and protection of trees around the planet.

Trees and their contribution to the well-being of the planet and human lives – that’s our mission.

And that's why our signature tree is the Trembling Aspen

Trembling aspens are subalpine trees in the mountainous terrains of western North America. The common name “trembling or quaking” refers to the shaking or fluttering of the tree’s leaves in breezes. In this species, the petiole (= “stem” leading to a leaf) is flattened. The flattened surface catches even slight air movements, resulting in the leaves “trembling” or “quaking”. This plant principally propagates by spreading out lateral root systems. Entire groves of quaking aspens can have identical DNA fingerprints - they're all “twins”, or “clones” of each other.
