All areas to be planted with shrubs shall be excavated, trenched to a depth of 600-450 mm,
refilling it with finely mixed good black garden soil and excavated earth (after breaking the clods
and mixing with sludge in the ratio 8:1 (8 parts of stacked volume of earth after reduction by
20%: 1 part of stacked volume of sludge after reduction by 8%). Backfill soil should be firmed as
filling proceeds, layer by layer, care being taken to avoid avoiding damaging the roots, as
follows:
Tall shrubs may need staking, which shall be provided if approved by the Landscape Architect
depending upon the conditions of individual plant specimen.
For planting shrubs and ground cover shrubs in planters, good earth shall be mixed with sludge
in the proportion as above and filled in planters.
Positions of shrubs to be planted should be marked out in accordance with the planting plan.
When shrubs are set out, precautions should be taken to prevent roots drying. Planting holes 45
cm dia and 45 cm deep should be excavated for longer shrubs. Polythene and other non-
perishable containers should be removed and any badly damaged roots carefully pruned. The
shrubs should then be set in holes so that the soil level, after settlement, will be at the original
soil mark on the stem of the shrub. The hole should be backfilled to half pots depth and firmed
by treading. The remainder of the soil can then be returned and again firmed by treading. The
following Shrubs & ground covers have been planted at the periphery-
a. Caesalpinia pulcherrima
b. Ficus black

from people or animals. Plants with bare roots should be heeled-in as soon as received or
otherwise protected from drying out, and others set closely together and protected from the wind.
If planting is to be delayed for more than a week, packaged plants should be unpacked, the
bundles opened up and each ground of plants heeled in separately and clearly labeled. If for any
reason the surface of the roots becomes dry the roots should be thoroughly soaked before
