found this definition of Unterlagen in Duden "(Bot.) Pflanzenteil, auf den das Edelreis gepfropft wird", so perhaps something like "graftings"?

German term (edited): Unterlagenquartieren

(root) stock orchard/nursery

acc. to Mühle Wörterbuch für Landwirtschaft a Unterlage is root stock or simply stock; Quartier would normally be a block of trees, but in your context (assuming that your context is trees) I should probably rather go for orchard or nursery or maybe even the stool beds suggested by Claire.
