Abstract/Contents:Profiles the Daniel Island Club of Charleston, South Carolina, and how it embraces the growth of native trees. States that "the 36-hole club has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars protecting and moving hundreds of sweet gum, hickory and various species of oak trees during construction." Discusses how "stately oak and hickory trees help define the Lowcountry landscape...so the [Daniel Island Company] was determined to protect as many trees as possible, regardless of size." Describes the procedure of identifying and moving the trees and the fertilization process involved. Concludes that the Daniel Island Company "really [wants] to...preserve as much of the natural beauty as they can...They have a great program of keeping trees healthy and making sure they have enough room to grow."
