Abstract/Contents: | "A demonstration landscape area using Florida native plant species mulched with St. Petersburg's recycled mulch and irrigated with St. Petersburg's reclaimed water was laid out around the Water Quality Assessment Laboratory at 1635 3rd Avenue North, St. Petersburg, FL 33713, in June 1989. The species included: American Beautyberry (Callicarpa americana), Blackhaw (Viburnum obovatum), Blazing Star (Liatris spp.), Blue-eyed Grass (Sisyrinchium atlanticum), Coral Honey Suckle (Lonicera sempervirens), Fahkahatchee grass (Tripsacum dactyloides), Rain Lily (Zephyranthes simpsoni), Red Anise (Illicium floridanum), River Birch, (Betule nigra), Rusty Blackhaw (Vivurnum rufidulum), Rusty Lyonia (Lyonia ferruginea), Salvia (Salvia coccineus), Saw Palmetto (Serenoa repens), Simpsons' Stopper (Myricanthes fragrans var. simpsonii), Winged Elm, (Ulmus alata), Yellow Anise (Illicium Parviflora) and Yellow Jessamine (Gelsemium sempervirens). Reclaimed water quality application rates and mean rainfall levels were regularly monitored from June 1989 to November 1990. The growth and maturation of selected plant species was measured and the vegetative condition of all species was observed and recorded throughout the same time period. The growth responses to reclaimed irrigation water and the salt tolerance of selected species was evaluated and recommendations for the selection and suitability of salt tolerant species for inclusion in xeriscapes are included." |
