Upper Amazon Creek <br />b) Guidelines for Tree and Shrub Plantings <br />Notes <br />• Plan for a 400' section <br />• Plants not planted in clusters should be planted along the whole section in an even <br />spacing. <br />• If a species is included in more than one planting zone, a single cluster across both zones <br />can be displayed. <br />• To allow adequate conveyance, NO plants should be near bridges. Leave a distance of <br />approximately one bridge width on either side of each bridge unplanted. Leave 20 feet <br />implanted centering on each outfall. <br />• 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 />• There are two Oregon ash forests along this stretch. These areas will have `fingers' of <br />Oregon ash planted to connect them with the creek, while maintaining visual access to <br />the jogging trail for safety purposes. <br />15 <br />Plants <br />Total <br />Number <br />Plants <br />Planting <br />Latin Name <br />Common Name <br />Qty <br />of Plants <br />spacing <br />Zone <br />Both <br />per <br />within <br />Banks <br />Clusters <br />Clusters <br />... -- - -- - -..__............_........ ............................... <br />.....- <br />A lnus ru bra <br />_... -_ ... -.. - ._.... <br />Red alder <br />-. .._........_.............................................._-._.__ <br />4 <br />- <br />.... _ .............. <br />........ .....- - <br />3 <br />- _......_ ........................................................................... ......._....................... <br />Fraxinus latifo <br />_ ---------- ...... - - - -- ...... <br />Oregon ash <br />. <br />60 <br />..._... ........................_.. <br />4 -6 <br />- - -- - ................._......_ <br />10' -15' <br />1&2 <br />Pinusp <br />Ponderosa pine <br />4 <br />........ <br />H <br />.................... ............................... <br />Populus balsamifera ssp. <br />_.......... ....................._- ...._... - <br />Black cottonwood <br />12 <br />....... <br />4 -6 <br />.- - -- - -- ---- ................. <br />10' -15' <br />. ....................... __ .... .. <br />2 <br />tricho. <br />._ ..... <br />Quercus garryana _ _ <br />...... --........................ .............................. __.._...._.__...._.. <br />Oregon whi oak <br />------ ........ - <br />8 <br />- - ....__ ...... -- ............. <br />- <br />. ............. -- ._.._ ............. <br />- <br />........_.. ....... <br />1 <br />Salix lucida ss . lasiandra <br />Pacific willow <br />20 <br />- <br />- <br />2 <br />Amelachier alnifolia <br />Western <br />.... .__-- ..._.. _ ......................... <br />serviceberry ................. -- . ....... _. .......... <br />6 <br />. .......................... .._ <br />--- ........ --- ..................... ..............._. <br />........... _. ......... _..-- <br />1 <br />Berbe aq uifolium <br />1&2 <br />Crataegus douglasii <br />.... .. ...I..... <br />Black hawthorn <br />__.- ..__._ <br />15 <br />.......... <br />2 -4 <br />.. ......... ........................_ <br />- - - - -- - <br />2 <br />_ ... ...................____-- __ - - -- <br />Physocarpus capi - _ <br />........... .__..__........._______....._.. <br />Ninebark <br />__ �.. <br />12 <br />2 <br />_- __..__............7�.._. <br />_.._........_ <br />___ - -.._ - <br />1. <br />Rosa noot kana <br />Nootka rose <br />12 <br />5 -10 <br />5' <br />1 & 2 <br />Sal hoo kerian a <br />Hooker's wil <br />.....— <br />30 <br />-- - - - - -- <br />------ . ....................... <br />Sali sitc <br />Sitka willow <br />S horic us albus <br />Snowberry <br />..... <br />60 <br />5 -10 <br />............._............. - -_ .... <br />5 _ <br />... ............................... <br />.. <br />1& 2 <br />Total <br />1 299 <br />15 <br />
