The builder is required by the County and State to plant a native tree at every property. Not sure how the get away with planting non-native crepe myrtles, hollies and cultivated species of magnolia.
The oaks and some of the hollies (East Palatka) are the only true native trees I see them plant for the new home packages. Would love to see some maples, dogwoods, viburnums, cedar or cypress planted.
The code was written for a reason, and it doesn't read "plant what ever tree you can buy cheap, and then an oak every couple lots".
