Eslab►i,hed 1928 <br />2526 17"' Avenue <br />Vero Beach, Florida 32960 <br />November 8, 2014 <br />To Whom It May Concern: <br />Plione 772-567-4602 <br />NN'�vNv.eardenclubofirc.org <br />The Garden Club of Indian River County requires the following before installation of landscaping <br />projects: <br />A low volume irrigation system will be installed to ensure continued growth of the planting <br />areas for a minimum of one year. Irrigation systems shall be continuously maintained in working order <br />and shall be designed so not to overlap water zones or to water impervious areas. Prior to activation, <br />the system is to be clean and free of substances harmful to the growth of the plantings. Water should <br />be free of staining agents and odor. <br />If an irrigation type of system, as listed above, is not available, a system must be in place to <br />provide three irrigations each week during the first few months after planting. Following the initial few <br />months of frequent irrigation, provide weekly irrigation until plantings are fully established. At each <br />irrigation, apply 2 to 3 gallons of water per inch trunk diameter (e.g. 2-6 gallons for a 2 -inch tree) over <br />the root ball only. Water twice per month in warm weather in spring, summer and fall and once or <br />twice per month in winter in the first three to five years. Between years five and seven, water once <br />every three weeks in warm weather and once every six weeks in winter. After this, the drought tolerant <br />desert trees should be able to survive on natural rainfall. <br />Thank you. <br />Cordially, <br />Connie Derman <br />Chair, Civic Committee <br />Mlemher ni tiatiotta[ G.:rden (dubs, Inn. mid Florid❑ Federnfion ai Garden ('Iuhs, Inc. 319 <br />
