Ültetve

Ültetve is a Hungarian word that functions as the past participle of the verb ültetni, meaning to plant or transplant. It denotes that something has already been planted, i.e., is in the ground. Grammatically, ültetve can be used as an adjective modifying a noun (a planted plant) or as a predicative participle with a form of the auxiliary van: e.g., A palánta kiültetve van a földbe—the seedling has been planted in the ground.

In agricultural and horticultural contexts, ültetve appears in descriptions of crops and planting progress, and it is often used together with related terms such as ültetés (the act of planting) and ültetvény (plantation). The form kiültetve is used specifically to indicate transplantation outdoors.

Etymology: derived from ültetni with the suffix -ve, forming a resultative participle. The word belongs to a family of terms tied to planting and cultivation, including palánta (seedling) and kiültetés (out-planting).
