Good Morning,

As Requested, I have compiled a list of suggestions to increase the visual "Color" of the island.

I have taken photos of certain areas suggested by Brice to focus on, and I have attached photos of plants I think would do well there.

I have also included a few photos ofnative Mahogany and Turpentine trees that I think would do well along the south coast.

To be perfectly clear-
I recommend the following:

Because of their hearty attributes, heat and drought resistance, and proven acclimation to this region.

Flowers:

• Oleander

-Frangipani

-Bouganvilla

• Desert Rose

-Ginger Thomas

Trees:

• Flamboyant

• Mahogany

-Terpentine

***I have also attached an excel spreadsheet with some price considerations.

An interesting website illustraiting and describing the native, and most prolific local plants/flowers.

Jeffrey,

I ran the prices for these by Randy and below is what his comments were

As far as the pricing goes I have nothing bad to say about island tropical or their abilities. The owner, Larry, is a pretty good guy and their quality from my understanding is good. I think their prices are competitive.

I poincianna-Beautiful don't know gets if huge you want and my vibrant input color on the once plant a year choices but here it goes. Flamboyant or Royal

Frangi pani- Beautiful in bloom but deciduous Mr E would kill someone if he has to look at it bare

oleander-great plant but gets bugs

The other areas I will not comment on because I am not there to see the total area i.e. proximity to salt and light conditions. I will comment on how Mr E did not like the bromeliads at his house in Palm Beach and one of the other suggestions is pretty invasive. They should get a bunch of the cheap #2 stuff that is available and use it as fillers in the larger open areas. If you or Mr Epstein have any more questions you know how to get a hold of me
