Urban Forest Strategy Strategy:
Suggested Tree Species
The City of Armadale’s Urban Forest Strategy strengthens the diverse
landscape character of the City encompassing appropriate landscape
planning and showcasing the City’s botanic heritage.
This summary highlights the relevance of the Urban
Forest Strategy to landscaping in the City and how the
community and developers can distinguish the City as
a ‘tree change’ destination outside of Perth. The full
strategy is available on the City of Armadale website.
Each precinct has a preferred tree species list,
summarised below, which strengthens the landscape
character of the area. The full list, and other
information, is found in the full Urban Forest Strategy.
The Urban Forest Strategy divides the City of Armadale
into four precincts (Figure 1):
•
The Swan Coastal Plain
•
Armadale Strategic Metropolitan Centre
•
Kelmscott Town Centre
•
Hills
