摘要: |
The biggest mistake with using native plants on Hawaii’s roadways is to assume that native plants do not require nutrient enhancement or supplemental water to establish on these sites. The establishment of native plants will require a detailed analysis of the site interms of access to irrigation water, established weeds and other ground covers as well as suitability to a mixture of desired native plants in the final landscape setting. This document provides protocols that start with proper preplant site preparation to purge weedy species and leave the site with a depleted capability to repopulate with undesirable vegetation. This is followed by planting and establishment techniques of piligrass (Heteropogon contortus), akiaki (Sporobolus virginicus) and mauu akiaki (Fimbristylis cymosa). The protocols provided in this planting handbook were developed with the understanding that contract or shave a defined period to finish a job and that many challenges exist in establishing a persistent landscape composed of native Hawaiian plants. |
