All applications must be complete. An incomplete application will be returned to the applicant and will not be
scheduled for review.
Tips for tree planting and species selection:
A variety of tree species should be planted so no single species dominates.
Consider the length of the growing season, soil characteristics and exposure before selecting trees and shrubs for
specific sites.
Plant trees in the spring or fall (Consult nursery for best results).
Mulch the root area to help delay freezing of the soil in the fall and to retain soil moisture.
The following is a list of trees that are typically successful in the Town of Vail. Due to multiple microclimates and site
constraints, the inclusion of a tree on the list does not guarantee survival. This list is not all-inclusive and there are
many species and variations that may also grow successfully. Contact your local arborist, landscape architect, land-
scaping company or seed supplier for more information.
