Guidlines are pretty simple
You must be a resident within Tampa City Limits, 2 tree limit per annual year. Trees planted and remain planted on city ROW (right of way) public property, no trees are planted on private property.
Resident must agree to an on going watering maintenance of the tree(s) from time of planting and as long as 1 year, depending on establishment time frame of the tree.
NO...you don't have to plant it....we will!
The right tree for the right place will be selected between each resident and City staff.
How big is it? Good question. Trees have a 30 gallon rootball. Depending on the tree, heights range from 4' to 12'.
If you have any other questions about the program, please call: 813-274-7733 Deborah
