Shrubs. 1) Pruning shall be provided to encourage a healthy natural growth pattern for each specific plant variety. Flowering shrubs shall not be pruned until after the bloom cycle.

Shrubs. The Contractor does not guarantee the continued health and viability of any shrub. However in the event of any shrub death during the first growing season following planting, the Contractor will assess on Site and may (at its sole discretion) replace the shrub at its cost (subject to clause 9.5(d) below).
Shrubs. After the backfill around the shrubs has been brought to finish grade level and settled, a topsoil earth saucer 4" high and 6" wide shall be formed inside the outer edge of each shrub pit or around the perimeter of the entire shrub bed if approved by a Landscape Architect.
Shrubs. Pruning of shrubs in general will be done with hand shears as needed to provide an informal shape, fullness and blooms. Spring-flowering shrubs will not be pruned until after the bloom cycle. Shrubs may also be selectively pruned if they block windows or views. Shrubs shall be maintained to avoid contact with structures (e.g. buildings and walls etc.) and provide clearance for maintenance around structures of at least 12 to 18 inches where practical. Formal xxxxxx will be pruned by power shears, but care will be taken to insure that the sides slope slightly away from vertical to allow sunlight to reach lower foliage. Dead or broken branches will be removed when noted. Selective removal of small sections of branches as a form of insect pest control is also acceptable providing the natural shape of the shrub is maintained. No pruning will be done during or immediately after growth flushes. Hard pruning will only be accomplished upon “CONTRACTOR” recommendation and “OWNER” approval.
