6 parts by volume on-site soil
4 parts by volume organic amendment
1 pound 6-20-20 fertilizer mix/cu. yd. of mix
2 pounds iron sulfate per cubic yard of mix
Note: The above is for bid purposes only. Specific backfill recommendations are mode as
o result of the soils testing described on the planting plan.
10. Raise all plants which settle deeper than the surrounding grade. After plant has been placed,
add sufficient backfill to hole to cover approximately 1 /2 of root ball. Add water to the top
and thoroughly saturate root boll and adjacent soil.
11. After water has completely drained, place planting tablets (21 gram unless otherwise noted):
1 5 gram tablet per plug of flatted groundcover
1 tablet per 1-gallon container
2 tablets per 5-gallon container
3 tablets per 15-gallon container
4 tablets per 24 inch box

Contractor is responsible for cleaning or replacing stained surfaces.
E. Planting Groundcaver:
1. Ensure that groundcover remains in the flats until transplanting. Flats' soil must contain
sufficient moisture so it will not fall apart when lifting plants.
2" Plant groundcovers in straight rows evenly spaced unless shown otherwise, and at intervals
required by drawings. Use triangular spacing unless otherwise noted on drawings.
