LANDSCAPE GENERAL NOTES:
1. QUANTITIES SHOWN ON PLANT LIST ARE LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT'S ESTIMATE ONLY AND SHOULD BE VERIFIED PRIOR TO BIDDING.
CONTRACTOR SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR BIDDING AND PROVIDING QUANTITY OF PLANTS REQUIRE AT SPACING DESIGNATED FOR BED
SIZES AND CONFIGURATIONS SHOWN ON PLANS REGARDLESS OF QUANTITIES DESIGNATED ON PLANT LIST.
2. CONTRACTOR SHALL NOTIFY LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT OF ANY DISCREPANCIES, AMBIGUITY, OR UNLABELED PLANTS ON PLANS PRIOR TO
BID SUBMITTAL. IF DISCREPANCY, AMBIGUITY, OR UNLABELED PLANT IS NOT CLARIFIED BY LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT PRIOR TO BID
SUBMITTAL DATE, CONTRACTOR SHALL NOTE SUCH ITEM ON BID.
3. CONTRACTOR SHALL PROVIDE REPRESENTATIVE SAMPLES OF SHRUB AND GROUNDCOVER STOCK FOR LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT'S
AND/OR OWNER'S APPROVAL PRIOR TO MAJOR SHIPMENT OF MATERIALS TO SITE. IF REPRESENTATIVE EXAMPLES CANNOT BE
PROVIDED, CONTRACTOR SHALL FURNISH GOOD QUALITY PHOTOGRAPH OF LANDSCAPE MATERIALS TO LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT AND/OR
OWNERS. PHOTOGRAPHS SHALL HAVE A MEANS OF DETERMINING SCALE AND SIZE OF MATERIALS WITHIN THE PHOTOGRAPH (I.E. FIELD
POLE WITH ONE FOOT INCREMENT FOR TREES).
4. AFTER TILLAGE AND CLEANING, ALL AREAS TO BE GRASSED SHALL BE LEVELED, AND FINE GRADED. THE REQUIRED RESULT SHALL BE
THE ELIMINATION OF RUTS, DEPRESSIONS, HUMPS, AND OBJECTIONABLE SOIL CLODS. DURING THE SOIL PREPARATION PROCESS, A
"ROCK PICK" OR "ROCK RAKE" SHALL BE USED TO GATHER SURFACE STONES AS SMALL AS ONE INCH (1") IN DIAMETER.
5. UNLESS NOTED ON PLANS OTHERWISE, GRASS AREAS TO BE SOLID SOD BERMUDA GRASS.
6. CONTRACTOR SHALL GUARANTEE A FULL STAND OF GRASS, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER A PERMANENT LANDSCAPE IRRIGATION SYSTEM
IS INSTALLED. CONTRACTOR SHALL PROVIDE TEMPORARY IRRIGATION OR HAND WATER AS REQUIRED FOR TURF ESTABLISHMENT.
7. SOIL AMENDMENT: "A PROFESSIONAL BEDDING SOIL" AS PRODUCED BY LIVING EARTH TECHNOLOGIES, INC., 1808 W. NORTHWEST

STREET, DALLAS, TEXAS (PHONE: 972-831-8181), OR APPROVED EQUAL.
8. TREE HOLES TO EE HAND EXCAVATED 2' GREATER THAN BALL DIAMETER AND 6" DEEPER.
TREE BACKFILL SHOULD BE COMPOSED OF 5 PARTS OF EXISTING SOIL EXCAVATED FROM THE HOLE TO ONE PART SOIL AMENDMENT,
THOROUGHLY MIXED WITH 5 LBS. PER CUBIC YARD BACKFILL FERTILIZER (13.13.13 ANALYSIS BULK FERTILIZER). TREE BACKFILL TO BE
MECHANICALLY MIXED PRIOR TO BACKFILL OPERATIONS.
9. SHRUB PITS SHALL EE HAND EXCAVATED 12" GREATER THAN CONTAINER DIAMETER AND 6" DEEPER. BACKFILL WITH 1/2 EXISTING SOIL
AND 1/2 SOIL AMENDME!\IT (OR APPROVED EQUAL) AS NOTED UNDER NOTE 7. ABOVE, THOROUGHLY BLENDED BY MECHANICAL MEANS
PRIOR TO BACKFILL.
10. SOIL PREPARATION FOR GROUNDCOVER, SHRUB, AND SEASONAL COLOR BEDS:
A) EXCAVATE EXISTING SOIL, IF NECESSARY, AND ADD TO SHRUB, GROUNDCOVER, AND SEASONAL COLOR AREAS THE FOLLOWING:
- 4" LAYER OF COMPOST MIX
- 14-14-14 SLOW RELEASE FERTILIZER (OSMACOTE) AT A RATE OF 5 LBS. / 100 S.F.
B) SPREAD MATERIALS UNIFORMLY AND CULTIVATE THOROUGHLY BY MEANS OF A MECHANICAL TILLER. TILL TO A MINIMUM DEPTH OF 8".
C) POCKET PLANTING OF SHRUB, GROUNDCOVER, AND SEASONAL COLOR IS NOT ALLOWED.
11. MULCH TOPDRESSING TO BE MINIMUM 3" LAYER DOUBLE SHREDDED HARDWOOD, SPREAD UNIFORMLY ON ALL SHRUB AND
GROUNDCOVER BEDS AND ON ALL TREE SAUCERS. AVAILABLE FROM LIVING EARTH TECHNOLOGY (PHONE: 214-869-4332) OR APPROVED
EQUAL.
12. BED EDGING (IF APPLICABLE) TO BE 1/8" X 4" COL -MET "COMMERCIAL" EDGING AS MANUFACTURED BY COL -MET, GARLAND, TEXAS

CONTRACTOR SHALL THEN INSTALL 6" OF NATIVE WASHED GRAVEL COVERED ON THE TOP (AND UP TO A MINIMUM OF 12" ON THE SIDES
OF THE HOLE) WITH FILTER FABRIC. THE CONTRACTOR SHALL ALSO INSTALL A CAPPED 3" DIAMETER PVC SUMP WHICH WILL EXTEND
FROM NEAR THE BOTTOM OF THE ROCK LAYER TO 3" ABOVE THE PROPOSED FINISH GRADE SO THE HOLE CAN BE EVACUATED THROUGH
