TREE REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT TOEXPAND CANOPY COVER <br />Height: 55’+ <br />Example Species: <br />Coast Live Oak (Quercus agrifolia) <br />Aleppo Pine (Pinus halpensis) <br />Engelmann Oak (Quercus engelmanii) <br />Benefits: <br />Large trees should be planted wherever <br />space allows. A large tree provides six <br />times more shade, stores seven times <br />as much carbon, and captures five <br />times more water than a small tree. <br />Height: 35’ to 55’ <br />Example Species: <br />Box Elder (Acer negundo) <br />Jacaranda (Jacaranda mimosifolia) <br />Australian Willow (Geijera parviflora) <br />Benefits: <br />Medium trees strike a balance between <br />the benefits of larger trees and the <br />spatial requirements of small trees. <br />Medium trees are beneficial to have <br />along parkways and in commercial <br />space that may not allow large trees. <br />Height: Under 35’ <br />Example Species: <br />Toyon (Heteromeles arbutifuloia) <br />Desert Willow (Chilopsis linearis) <br />Western Redbud (Cercis occidentalis) <br />Benefits: <br />Small trees are best used when a <br />larger tree may conflict with <br />surrounding infrastructure such as <br />powerlines or nearby buildings. Small <br />trees are also used to fill in gaps in the <br />landscape and create visual interest. <br />...REPLACE WITH:IF YOU REMOVE... <br />OR <br />OR <br />LARGE TREES2X <br />MEDIUM TREES4X <br />SMALL TREES6X <br />LARGE TREES2X <br />MEDIUM TREES3X <br />SMALL TREES4X <br />OR <br />OR <br />LARGE TREE1X <br />MEDIUM TREES2X <br />SMALL TREES3X <br />OR <br />OR <br />1x Large Tree <br />1x Medium Tree <br />1x Small Tree
