The Landscape Committee is delighted to share once again the revised plan for our entrance as well as images of the plants that have been recommended by BFT, our landscape architects. Their selections represent a variety of beautiful trees, shrubs, perennials and groundcovers that will provide color, texture, and interest throughout the year. Images of the plants will be on the Abbottsford website, and we encourage you to take a look at what we have to look forward to as these new plants and trees mature.
This is the ideal time to plant, and we are pleased to report that work will begin on Monday, December 16th, starting with the removal of four declining sweet gum trees and three leaning/unhealthy pines at the entrance. Tree removal and stump grinding will take place over three consecutive days, assuming the weather cooperates, and the installation of new trees and other plants will begin on Thursday, December 19th. We anticipate that work will be completed by the end of the year.
We will be in touch with the community regularly as landscape work continues so that everyone is informed and knows what to expect.
