  • SALT TOLERANT PLANTS Damage Due to Excessive Soil Salt Generally Appears in Mid to Late Summer
    CHRISTENSEN'S PLANT CENTER SALT TOLERANT LANDSCAPE PLANTS Soil salt damages a plant by reducing its ability to absorb water and take up plant nutrients. Excessives sodium causes soil to break down resulting in poor drainage and lack of proper oxygen. Some of the symptoms are leaf discoloration, browning and shedding needles, scorched leaf edges, small leaves (producing a thin crown look), early fall color, and\or clumping foliage. Please remember when trying to diagnose plant damage, all of the above signs can also be caused by a variety of other factors, including root damage, drought, disease, or chemical misuse.

    Additional Guidance for Landscape Design This information is not intended to be comprehensive and should serve as additional guidance. Department approval or availability of plant material at nurseries is not guaranteed. Invasive trees and plantings are not permitted in landscaping. Please see the Tree and Shrub List. A minimum of 70% native trees and shrubs and 30% non-invasive/non-native is the expectation for plant selection. For plant diversity, you should incorporate the 10-20-30 percent rule for plantings. No more than 10% of the same species, 20% on the same genus and 30% in the same family to help diversify the landscape. When you select plantings, please keep in mind diseases and insect infestations, such as Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) and Bacterial Leaf Scorch (BLS), that could affect your plantings. Only native trees are to be used in forested area connectivity.
