Appendix F LIST OF PLANT MATERIALS RECOMMENDED FOR EL PUEBLO VIEJO The following is a list of plant materials recommended for use within El Pueblo Viejo Landmark District. The list is intended to provide landscape architects with a suggested palette of plants which is compatible with the required Hispanic design tradition established by the Historic Structures Ordinance. In the context of general landscape design guidelines, it is suggested that all of the plant materials proposed for use within the landmark district meet at least one of the following criteria: 1. Consistency with general comments of the Historic Structures Ordinance. (See Appendix in these Guidelines.) 2. Compatibility with the “California Adobe” and “Monterey Revival” architectural styles and the “Spanish Colonial Revival” style of the period from 1915 to 1930. 3. Compatibility with a design style which is considered “Mediterranean” in character. 4. Utilization of plant species which already exist within the historic district. This list is intended only as a guideline and it is recognized that other plant materials not indicated here may also be suitable for use within El Pueblo Viejo. Note: 9 = Water Wise Plants. Water Wise Plants: Those plants that are evaluated as needing "low" (10-30% ETo) or "very low" (<10% ETo) amounts of irrigation water as defined and listed by Water Use Classifications of Landscape Species (WUCOLS) at http://www.owue.water.ca.gov/docs/wucols00.pdf or other sources of water-wise plant water use classifications as verified by a licensed landscape architect.
