While trees are discouraged over storm sewers, shrubs present no such similar issues. Please consider spreading the shrubs out accordingly to take full advantage of the width that is available. Perhaps by doing so, additional plant material can be added. Comment Number: 12 Comment Originated: 06/10/2014 06/10/2014: Of the 34 Deciduous Shrubs, 28 are a variety of Spirea.
