==Planting Design Considerations==
*Where possible a combination of native trees, shrubs and perennial herbs should be used in addition to grasses.
*Most bioswales will be situated to receive full sun exposure. The ‘Exposure’ column in the master plant list identifies the sun exposure condition for each species.
Facilities with a deeper media bed (greater than 1 m) provide the opportunity for a wider range of plant species (including trees).
*For applications along roads and parking lots, where snow may be plowed or stored, non-woody and salt tolerant species should be chosen.
*Proper spacing must be provided for aboveground and belowground utilities, and adjacent infrastructure.
