Istutetut

Istutetut is a Finnish word that functions as the plural past participle of istuttaa, meaning "to plant." It is used as an adjective or, in some contexts, as a noun phrase to refer to things that have been planted, such as trees, shrubs, or crops. The singular form is istutettu; istutetut is the plural nominative. As an adjective, istutetut agrees with the noun it modifies in number and case, for example istutetut puut (planted trees) or istutetut taimet (planted saplings).

In Finnish grammar, participial adjectives typically do not take articles, so istutetut appears as part of a noun phrase rather than as a standalone noun in most contexts. It is commonly found in forestry, agriculture, nurseries, and land-management writing, especially in descriptions of planted stock or reforestation efforts. A sentence example: Istutetut puut ovat kasvaneet nopeasti.

Relation to other terms: istutus refers to the act of planting, istuttaa is the verb meaning “to plant,” and istutettu is the singular passive past participle; istutetut is its plural form. Other related forms include istutettujen (genitive plural) and istuttaminen (the act of planting). The term is primarily used in practical descriptions of vegetation and landscape projects, rather than as a proper noun.
