Kris -
I have reviewed the landscape plan for Oak Green Villas and
have the followin comments:
1. The plan and the plant list do not correspond in terms of numbers
of plants. This should be corrected so accurate numbers are listed.
If plantin more than 25 individuals of a particular cultivar,
consider substitutin some other plants for g reater landscape
diversit
2. Are the elms cultivars which are resistant to Dutch elm disease?
Which cultivars were the g oin g to plant?
3. Golden mockoran is o. k. in smaller numbers but if plantin more
than 10 the should consider another plant also to substitute for
some of the mockoran Golden mockoran is subject to a fun
leaf bli and also winter injur and can look bad in the landscape
over time.
4. Are there existin trees over 8 inches in diameter on this
propert If so, a tree inventor and a tabulation of trees to be
removed and trees to be preserved will be needed.
5. The desi and plant materials are otherwise acceptable.
