Upper Amazon Creek <br /> C • Black cottonwood should not be planted near structures, facilities, or gathering places, <br /> because older trees have a tendency to shed branches and frequently fail. Similarly, as <br /> trees mature they may need to be removed in areas where they put humans at risk. <br /> However, in some areas, it is desirable to maintain a younger, vigorous stand of <br /> cottonwoods and standing snags, that pose little risk to humans, to serve as habitat trees. <br /> Plants Total Number Plant Planting <br /> Latin Name Common Name Qty of Plants spacing Zone <br /> Both per within <br /> Banks Cluster Clusters <br /> Arbutus menziesii Madrone 4 - - 1 <br /> Alnus rhombifolia White alder 6 - 3 <br /> Alnus rubra Red alder 4 - - 3 <br /> T Fraxinus latifolia Oregon ash 16 4 -6 10' -15' 1 & 2 <br /> 1— Pinus ponderosa Ponderosa pine 8 1 <br /> Populus balsamifera ssp.
