WITH ALL SURFACE DRAINAGE AWAY FROM BUILDINGS, WALLS, AND
TOWARD ROADWAYS, DRAINS, AND CATCH BASINS.
.8 FINAL GRADES SHALL BE ACCEPTABLE TO THE ARCHITECT BEFORE
PLANTING OPERATIONS WILL BE ALLOWED TO BEGIN.
.9 PLANTING SURFACES SHALL BE GRADED WITH NO LESS THAN TWO (2)
PERCENT SURFACE SLOPE FO~ POSITIVE DRAINAGE AWAY FROM ALL
BUILDINGS.
3.5 PLANTING:
.1 THE LAYOUT OF LOCATIONS FOR PLANTS AND OUTLINES OF
GROUNDCOVER TO BE PLANTED SHALL BE APPROVED ON THE SITE BY THE
ARCHITECT, PRIOR TO THEIR PLANTING.
' ALL SUCH LOCATIONS SHALL BE CHECKED FOR POSSIBLE INTERFERENCE
WITH EXISTING UNDERGROUND PIPING, PRIOR TO EXCAVATION OF HOLES. IF
UNDERGROUND CONSTRUCTION OR UTILITY LINES ARE ENCOUNTERED IN
THE EXCAVATION OF PLANTING AREAS, OTHER LOCATIONS FOR THE
PLANTING MAY BE SELECTED BY THE ARCHITECT. DAMAGE TO EXISTING
UTILITIES SHALL BE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE CONTRACTOR.
.2 PLANTING TREES, SHRUBS, AND VINES:
A. ALL EXCAVATED HOLES SHALL HAVE VERTICAL SIDES WITH
ROUGHENED SURFACES AND SHALL BE OF THE MINIMUM SIZES INDICATED
ON DRAWINGS. HOLES SHALL BE, IN ALL CASES, LARGE ENOUGH TO
PERMIT HANDLING AND PLANTING WITHOUT INJURY OR BREAKAGE OF
ROOT BAL,LS OR ROOTS.
B. EXCAVATION SHALL INCLUDE THE STRIPPING AND STACKING OF ALL
ACCEPTABLE SOIL ENCOUNTERED WITHIN THE AREAS TO BE EXCAVATED
FOR PLANT PITS AND PLANTING BEDS. PROTECT ALL AREAS THAT ARE TO
BE TRUCKED OVER AND UPON WHICH SOIL IS TO BE TEMPORARILY
STACKED PENDING ITS RE-USE FOR THE FILLING OF HOLES, PITS, AND
BEDS.
C. EXCESS SOIL GENERATED FROM THE PLANTING HOLES SHALL BE
SPREAD ON THE SITE AS DIRECTED BY THE ARCHITECT.
D. PLANTS IN CONTAINERS SHALL HAVE THE CANS OPENED BY CUTTING
VERTICALLY ON OPPCSITE SIDES OF EAtH
E. THE PLANTS SHALL BE PLANTED AT APPROVED LOCATIONS WITH THE
HERETO FORE SPECIFIED CONDITIONER AND SOIL PLANTING BACKFILL. NO
PLANT EXCEPT GROUNDCOVER SHALL BE PLANTED WITHIN THREE (3) FEET
OF SPRINKLER HEADS. NO TREE SHALL BE PLANTED WITHIN SIX (6) FEET OF
SPRINKLER HEADS.
F. THE PLANTS SHALL BE PLACED IN THE PLANTING PITS ON UNDISTURBED
GRADE, SO THAT THE CROWNS OF THE ROOT BALLS ARE 1" ABOVE
SURROUNDING FINISH GRADE. AFTER SETTING THE PLANTS, THE REMAINING
BACKFILL MATERIAL SHALL BE CAREFULLY TAMPED AND SETTLES AROUND
EACH ROOT BALL TO FILL ALL VOIDS.
G. EACH TREE AND SHRUB SHALL BE PLACED IN THE CENTER OF THE
HOLE AND SHALL BE SET PLUMB AND HELD RIGIDLY IN POSITION UNTIL THE
PLANTING BACKFILL HAS BEEN TAMPED FROM AROUND EACH ROOT BALL.
H. PLANTING TABLETS SHALL BE PLACED IN EACH PLANTING HOLE,
LOCATED AS PER MANUFACTURER'S SPECIFICATIONS, AT THE FOLLOWING
RATES:
(1) -5 GRAM TABLET PER LINER AND FLAT SIZE PLANT.
(1). 21 GRAM TABLET PER 1-GALLON CONTAINER.
(3)-21 GRAM TABLETS PER5-0ALLON CONTAINER.
(5). 21 GRAM TABLETS PER 5-GALLON CONTAINER.
(1) -21 GRAM TABLET PER EACH 3" OF BOX SIZE.
I. NO PLANT WILL BE ACCEPTED IF THE ROOT BALL IS BROKEN OR CRACKED.
EITHER BEFORE, DURING OR AFTER THE PROCESS OF 11,STALLATION.
J. ALL PLANTS SHALL BE THOROUGHLY WATERED INTO THE FULL DEPTH OF
EACH PLANTING HOLE IMMEDIATELY AFTER PLANTING.
K. ALL TREES SPECIFIED TO BE STAKED SHALL BE STAKED W1TH TWO LODGE:
POLE STAKES, DRIVEN INTO THE GROUND ON THE SIDES OF THE TREE
PERPENDICULAR TO THE PREVAILING WINDS. THE STAKES SHALL BE DRIVEN
IN PLUMB AND SECURE. SPECIAL CARE SHALL BE TAKEN THAT THE DRIVING
IN OF THE STAKE DOES NOT DAMAGE THE TREES ROOTS OR ROOT BALL.
TREE TIES SHALL BE FASTENED TO EACH TREE AND STAKE BY LOOPING
FIGURE 8'S WITH THE INSIDE DIAMETER OF THE TIE AT 2 OR 3 TIMES THE
DIAMETER OF THE TREE AND BY TACKING THE BACK OF THE TIE TO THE
STAKE. (SEE DETAILED DRAWINGS).
L. ALL TREES SPECIFIED TO BE GUYED SHALL BE GUYED AS DETAILED .
M. THE STAKING AND GUYING SHALL BE ACCOMPLISHED IN SUCH A MANNER
AS TO INSURE THE PROPER AND HEALTHY GROWTH AND SAFETY OF THE
PLANTS, PROPERTY, AND THE PUBLIC.
N. THE CONTRACTOR SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL SURFACE AND
SUBSURFACE DRAINAGE REQUIRED WHICH MAY AFFECT HIS GUARANTEE OF
THE TREES, SHRUBS, AND VINES.
o. PRUNING AFTER PLANTING SHALL BE REQUIRED ON ALL TREES, SHRUBS,
AND VINES WHEN NECESSARY TO PROVIDE THE SPECIFIED OR APPROVED
STANDARD SHAPES, FORM AND/OR SIZES CHARACTERISTIC TO EACH PLANT.
PRUNING MAY INCLUDE THINNING, TOPPING, AND/OR CUTTING AND SHALL BE
UNDER THE DIRECTION OF THE ARCHITECT. CUTS OVER 314 INCH DIAMETER
SHALL BE PAINTED WITH APPROVED TREE SEALANT.
P. ALL TREES 24" BOX AND LARGER SHALL BE SPOTTED AND PLANTED WITH
A CRANE.
Q. ALL TREES 24" BOX AND LARGER SHALL BE SPOTTED IN PLACE PRIOR TO
THE DIGGING OF THE HOLE .
.3 PLANTING GROUNDCOVERS
A. GROUNDCOVERS SHALL BE PLANTED IN THE AREAS INDICATED ON THE
DRAWINGS. THE GROUNDCOVER PLANTS SHALL BE ROOTED CUTTINGS
GROWN IN FLATS, AND SHALL REMAIN IN THOSE FLATS UNTIL
TRANSPLANTING.
B. ALL GROUNDCOVER PLANTS SHALL BE PLANTED WITH SOIL AROUND
ROOTS IN STAGGERED ROWS, EVENLY SPACED AT THE INTERVALS CALLED
OUT ON THE DRAWINGS.
C. THE GROUNDCOVER PLANTS SHALL BE PLANTED SUFFICIENTLY DEEP TO
COVER ALL ROOTS AND A PLANTING TABLET SHALL BE PLACED IN EACH
PLANTING HOLE, AS PER MANUFACTURER'S SPECIFICATIONS, AND SHALL BE
IMMEDIATELY SPRINKLED AFTER PLANTING UNTIL THE ENTIRE AREA IS
SOAKED TO THE FULL DEPTH OF ALL THE HOLES.
D. THE GROUNDCOVER PLANTING AREA SHALL BE HAND-SMOOTHED AFTER
PLANTING TO PROVIDE AN EVEN, SMOOTH FINAL FINISH GRACE.
E. GROUNDCOVER SHALL BE PLANTED WITHIN 12" OF MAIN PLANT STEM
WHERE SHRUBS AND TREES ARE PLANTED .
3.6 HERBICIDE APPLICATION:
PRE-EMERGENT HERBICIDE SHALL BE APPLIED TO GROUNDCOVER AREAS
ONLY, AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH MANUFACTURER'S SPECIFICATIONS. DO
NOT APPLY IN LAWN OR HYDROSEED AREAS. ARCHITECT SHALL BE
NOTIFIED AND PRESENT AT THE TIME OF THE APPLICATION.
3.7 CLEAN-UP
AS PROJECT PROGRESSES, CONTRACTOR SHALL MAINTAIN ALL AREAS IN A
NEAT MANNER AND REMOVE UNSIGHTLY DEBRIS AS NECESSARY. AFTER
COMPLETION OF PROJECT, CONTRACTOR SHALL REMOVE ALL DEBRIS AND
CONTAINERS USED IN ACCOMPLISHING WORK. CONTRACTOR SHALL SWEEP
AND CLEAN ALL SIDEWALKS, ASPHALT, AND CONCRETE AREAS ADJACENT
TO PLANTINGS.
