Attachment_B_Plant_Maintenance.pdf

Attachment B is a detailed Plant Maintenance document for the Kissimmee Lakefront Park, providing comprehensive maintenance instructions for multiple plant species. The document systematically lists 40+ plant varieties, including their botanical names, common names, and specific maintenance requirements, ranging from pruning guidelines to seasonal care instructions. Each plant entry includes a visual reference image and a unique plan callout code, with maintenance descriptions specifying height management, pruning techniques, groundcover formation, and specific care needs like winter protection, dead material removal, and hedge trimming.

The maintenance guide covers diverse plant types such as Pride-of-the-Cape, Crinum Lily, Jewel of Thailand Ginger, Yellow Canna, Holly Fern, and various grasses and wildflower mixes. The document includes special sections for different plant groups, with maintenance descriptions emphasizing minimal intervention, selective pruning, and maintaining aesthetic appearance. The wildflower mix section, for instance, provides specific guidance on annual deadheading for mixtures including Elliott's Lovegrass, Blanket Flower, Cardinal Flower, and Rosinweed. This attachment appears to be part of a larger landscape maintenance contract, likely supporting the City of Kissimmee's comprehensive mowing and landscape services solicitation for municipal properties.
