Morphology

planted = plant (transparent) = plant + ed

The word 'planted' is transparently derived from the verb 'plant' with the addition of the past participle suffix '-ed'.

Etymology

Planted comes from the verb plant, from Latin planta meaning 'young plant' or 'sprout', and it originally meant to put a seed or small plant into the ground to grow. So a 'planted' tree, bulb, or seed is simply one that has been placed in the soil to grow.
