<br />You mentioned a desire to screen this hillside and enhance the visual <br />look of it - if possible and practicable. I suggest planting a row of <br />trees along the base of the hill. Space them 10 to 16 feet apart and <br />water as needed through the growing season. Honeylocust is probably <br />one of the best adapted and most drought resistant of the many trees <br />that could be used on this site. Siberian peashrub is one of the best <br />suited tall shrubs for a screen on the hill top. Plant them 3 to 6 <br />feet apart and water as needed. <br />Other shrubs and trees will grow on this area and could be used. My <br />opinion is the honeylocust and peashrub may be the best choice. I <br />would be glad to provide you with information on other species. <br />Please contact me should you have any questions or need assistance <br />with your erosion control, seeding and planting work. <br />ly, <br />/~ <br />Paul Obert <br />Wildlife Biologist <br />xc: Delta Soil Conservation District <br />
