Planting Notes Tree species should be selected for site suitability, screening potential, local species context and increased biodiversity. A species mix including Scots Pine, Hawthorn, Poplar, Willow, Sycamore, and Oak would match tree species found in existing coastal woodlands local to the site area and a dense understorey of shrubs including a high percentage of evergreen species should also be considered.
