SECTION 2LANDSCAPEFigure 3:Example of a SiteConcept PlanMasterplansFor larger developments where planting and hard landscaping may be a significantcomponent of the proposal, a more detailed masterplan will be required. Where amasterplan is required it should show the following:• the existing vegetation to be retained and removed;• any proposed areas of planting, (this can be annotated as woodland,individual trees, shrubs and grass, wildflower or amenity);• the position of driveways and entrances;• details of any boundaries, walls, hedgerows etc; and• proposed lighting (if any).In some (more exceptional) circumstances it might also be appropriate to provide:• cross sections to show how the proposal relates to the surroundinglandform; and/or• before and after photomontages, (that can be done within the ‘leafless’winter months and summer months to show the relative visual impacts).21
SECTION 2LANDSCAPEPlanting PlansA planting plan can provide supporting detail to the concept plan and should showany retained existing trees and vegetation. Existing trees should be numbered andwhere undertaken, relate to the tree survey schedule. For any proposed new treeand shrub planting, the following details should be included on a planting planand/or an accompanying schedule:• the proposed location of specimen trees and shrubs;• the area to be planted, the density of planting and the total number oftrees and shrubs to be planted;• the species names (common and Latin);• the type of nursery stock to be used (such as transplant, whip, feathered,container, standard as defined in British Standard 3936-1:1992 (Nurserystock. Specification for trees and shrubs) including stem circumference andheight where appropriate; and• whether they are bare rooted, root balled or container-grown. Wherecontainer-grown, the size/capacity of the container should also be given.The use of plants which are adapted to the local environment (and its wildlife)should be considered for both tree and shrub planting. In some cases the origin(where the parent plants originated) or provenance (where the parent material wasgrown) can be important and should be specified wherever possible.For grass or wild flower seeding the following details should be provided:• the type of grass seed mix, showing percentages of different wildflowers/grasses;• the proposed supplier; and• the rates of sowing per square metre.Where turf is proposed, information should be provided about the quality and,where appropriate, the grass species mix.Details about how trees and shrubs will be established will also be required fornew planting schemes. This may include some or all of the following:• the planting method to be used (e.g. notch or pit planting and treesupport or watering systems to be used);• any tree protection measures (e.g. stock fencing, use of treeshelters orguards to protect from stock or wild mammals);• watering, weeding, use of mulches, including type of mulch, and depth;• root barriers (if required);• the depth of topsoil (if it is to be imported);• any ground treatment, including fertilisers or any soil ameliorants; and• when planting will be carried out in relation to the development(e.g. first season after development finishes). Generally for the mostsuccessful establishment, planting should be undertaken betweenNovember and March.(Further guidance relating to planting can be found in Section 2.6.1).22
