During planting operations, excess waste materials shall be promptly and frequently removed from the site. 10. All proposed trees shall be installed either entirely in or entirely out of planting beds. Planting bed lines are not to be obstructed. All shrubs and ground cover area shall be planted in continuous prepared bed and top dressed with 3-inch shredded hardwood mulch. Mulch shall have been shredded within the last six months. 11. All planting beds adjacent to lawn, sod or seeded areas shall be spade edged. 12. Maintenance shall begin after each plant has been installed and shall continue until 90 days after final

x months. 11. All planting beds adjacent to lawn, sod or seeded areas shall be spade edged. 12. Maintenance shall begin after each plant has been installed and shall continue until 90 days after final acceptance by the architect or owner representative.
