PART 3 - EXECUTION
3.1 BED PREPARATION & FERTILIZATION
A.Landscape Contractor to inspect all existing conditions and
report any deficiencies to the Owner.
B.All planting areas shall be conditioned as follows:
1.Prepare new planting beds by scraping away existing grass
and weeds as necessary. Till existing soil to a depth of six
(6") inches prior to placing compost and fertilizer. Apply
fertilizer as per Manufacturer's recommendations. Add six
(6") inches of compost and till into a depth of six (6") inches
of the topsoil. Apply organic fertilizer such as Sustane or
Green Sense at the rate of twenty (20) pounds per one
thousand (1,000) square feet.
2.All planting areas shall receive a two (2") inch layer of
specified mulch.
3.Backfill for tree pits shall be as follows: Use existing top soil
on site (use imported topsoil as needed) free from large
clumps, rocks, debris, caliche, subsoils, etc., placed in nine
(9") inch layers and watered in thoroughly.
C.Grass Areas:
1.Blocks of sod should be laid joint to joint (staggered joints)
after fertilizing the ground first. Roll grass areas to achieve
a smooth, even surface. The joints between the blocks of
sod should be filled with topsoil where they are evidently
gaped open, then watered thoroughly.
3.2 INSTALLATION
A.Maintenance of plant materials shall begin immediately after each
plant is delivered to the site and shall continue until all
construction has been satisfactorily accomplished.
B.Plant materials shall be delivered to the site only after the beds
are prepared and areas are ready for planting. All shipments of
nursery materials shall be thoroughly protected from the drying
winds during transit. All plants which cannot be planted at once,
after delivery to the site, shall be well protected against the
possibility of drying by wind and Balls of earth of B & B plants
shall be kept covered with soil or other acceptable material. All
plants remain the property of the Contractor until final
acceptance.
C.Position the trees and shrubs in their intended location as per
plan.
D.Notify the Owner's Authorized Representative for inspection and
approval of all positioning of plant materials.
E.Excavate pits with vertical sides and horizontal bottom. Tree
pits shall be large enough to permit handling and planting
without injury to balls of earth or roots and shall be of such
depth that,when planted and settled, the crown of the plant shall
bear the same relationship to the finish grade as it did to soil
surface in original place of growth.
F.Shrub and tree pits shall be no less than twenty-four (24")
inches wider than the lateral dimension of the earth ball and six
(6") inches deeper than it's vertical dimension. Remove and haul
from site all rocks and stones over three-quarter (34") inch in
diameter. Plants should be thoroughly moist before removing
containers.
G.Dig a wide, rough sided hole exactly the same depth as the
height of the ball, especially at the surface of the ground. The
sides of the hole should be rough and jagged, never slick or
glazed.
H.Percolation Test: Fill the hole with water. If the water level does
not percolate within 24 hours, the tree needs to move to another
location or have drainage added. Install a PVC stand pipe per
tree planting detail as approved by the Landscape Architect if the
percolation test fails.
I.Backfill only with 5 parts existing soil or sandy loam and 1 part
bed preparation. When the hole is dug in solid rock, topsoil from
the same area should not be used. Carefully settle by watering
to prevent air pockets. Remove the burlap from the top 13 of the
ball, as well as all nylon, plastic string and wire. Container trees
will usually be root bound, if so follow standard nursery practice
of ‘root scoring’.
J.Do not wrap trees.
K.Do not over prune.
L.Mulch the top of the ball. Do not plant grass all the way to the
trunk of the tree. Leave the area above the top of the ball and
mulch with at least two (2") inches of specified mulch.
M.All plant beds and trees to be mulched with a minimum settled
thickness of two (2") inches over the entire bed or pit.
N.Obstruction below ground: In the event that rock, or
underground construction work or obstructions are encountered
in any plant pit excavation work to be done under this section,
alternate locations may be selected by the Owner. Where
locations cannot be changed, the obstructions shall be removed
to a depth of not less than three (3') feet below grade and no
less than six (6") inches below the bottom of ball when plant is
properly set at the required grade. The work of this section shall
include the removal from the site of such rock or underground
obstructions encountered at the cost of the Landscape
Contractor.
O.Trees and large shrubs shall be staked as site conditions require.
Position stakes to secure trees against seasonal prevailing winds.
P.Pruning and Mulching: Pruning shall be directed by the
Landscape Architect and shall be pruned in accordance with
standard horticultural practice following Fine Pruning, Class I
pruning standards provided by the National Arborist Association.
1.Dead wood, suckers, broken and badly bruised branches
shall be removed. General tipping of the branches is not
permitted. Do not cut terminal branches.
2.Pruning shall be done with clean, sharp tools.
3.Immediately after planting operations are completed, all tree
pits shall be covered with a layer of organic material two
(2") inches in depth. This limit of the organic material for
trees shall be the diameter of the plant pit.
Q.Steel Curbing Installation:
1.Curbing shall be aligned as indicated on plans. Stake out
limits of steel curbing and obtain Owners approval prior to
installation.
2.All steel curbing shall be free of kinks and abrupt bends.
3.Top of curbing shall be 12" maximum height above final
finished grade.
4.Stakes are to be installed on the planting bed side of the
curbing, as opposed to the grass side.
5.Do not install steel edging along sidewalks or curbs.
6.Cut steel edging at 45 degree angle where edging meets
sidewalks or curbs.
3.3 CLEANUP AND ACCEPTANCE
A.Cleanup: During the work, the premises shall be kept neat and
orderly at all times. Storage areas for all materials shall be so
organized so that they, too, are neat and orderly. All trash and
debris shall be removed from the site as work progresses. Keep
paved areas clean by sweeping or hosing them at end of each
work day.
