UNK Landscape Master Plan Booklet

Plant Lists: Deciduous Canopy Trees / Evergreen Trees / Small Or - namental Trees / Shrubs / Turf Grass / Native Grass cool season and warm season/ Native Wildflowers

A palette of woody plants, grasses, and wildflowers has been prepared to comple- ment the principles of this plan and to fulfill its vision. Existing trees will be main- tained in place wherever possible. There are a large number of mature canopy trees at the University that may be subject to decline in the near future. To ensure landscape continuity, new trees should be planted relatively close to existing ma- ture trees so that as the aging trees decline and are removed, there will be young trees already started to take their place. Overall, the plan proposes to increase the number of trees on campus but to utilize a concise list of recommended trees that have been selected because they are attractive, adaptable, and hardy. When projects are planned that require the removal of existing trees, a site planting plan should be prepared to illustrate to concerned members of the community that the net number of trees in the location will not decline despite the proposed removal.

The following lists of plants and grasses have been selected following a review of the plants already on campus and trees recommended by the Nebraska Statewide Arboretum to provide a preferred list of plantings for the UNK campus. Other plants may be considered for proposed projects at the time of design review if they are required for the performance of a special aesthetic or horticultural func- tion and are adaptable to the proposed location.
