Many folks don't.

My understanding is you don't need it to plant a couple/few flowers or bushes.
This is my understanding as well. We asked this question of one of the TV folks who was at the "New Resident Welcome" session (or whatever it's properly called) that we attended a few months back. "If you're making any significant changes to your landscaping...." was pretty much the way the fellow prefaced the statement about needing to go through the Architectural Review process.

HOWEVER.....(there's always that! ), per the VCDD web site, "any and all" changes have to go through the review process:

So it's pretty much "pick your poison", it seems!
