Longmeadow Condominium Association
2014 Approved Shrubbery List
Take this list with you when you look.
Only these shrubbery varieties may be chosen.
IMPORTANT UPDATE: All varieties of Arborvitae are now NOT
approved. No new plantings of Arborvitae of any kind are
allowed. Unfortunately, since 2009 we had allowed the dwarf
Oriental variety, and the wide Rheingold, and people bought the
larger, tall, varieties.
Also: The Japanese barberry is now considered an "invasive" species
and can't be planted so that has been removed. Any species
considered invasive by any agency supersedes our rules and
regulations.
Any planting must be done according to instructions. E.g. If the recommend spacing is 3 feet, do not plant shrubs 1.5 feet apart.
