CHAPTER 6: LANDSCAPING <br />—� The landscaping at the Village at St. Anthony will be a pri- <br /> mary component in establishing the redevelopment's iden- <br /> tity. The landscape character will be comprised of a variety <br /> of landscape types -- each designed for specific sites and <br /> experiences --that, through the use of common species and <br /> character, will maintain consistency throughout the site. <br /> Landscaping is described in detail on the "Preliminary Land- <br /> scape Plan." Landscape types are covered briefly on the <br /> following pages. <br /> Basic Principles <br /> • Emphasis on the "floral history" of the site – both <br /> economic history and natural history – by utilizing <br /> heavily flowering native and cultivated species, <br /> such as roses, crab apples, flowering shrubs, <br /> perennials, and annuals. <br /> • Year long color: <br /> f!"/ <br /> o Spring: flowering ornamental trees r ~' <br /> ' <br /> o Summer: annuals, perennials, flowering <br /> shrubs <br /> o Fall: annuals, perennials, flowering shrubs <br /> o Winter: fruit bearing trees and shrubs, trees <br /> and shrubs with interesting bark. <br /> Consistent planting types and character throughout <br /> the site. <br /> 35 <br /> August, 2003 <br />
