A.2 
Plant Lists 
 
The Staff Recommended Plant List was prepared by the City of Phoenix Planning 
Department staff with assistance from the staff botanist/horticulturalist in the Water 
Conservation and Resources Division of the Water and Wastewater Department. The 
list includes a combination of native and introduced plants that are suitable to the 
Sonoran Desert. Suitability includes drought tolerance and mature height similar to 
Sonoran Desert vegetation. These plants were also selected for their adaptability to the 
climatic conditions, lower winter nighttime temperatures and more frequent frosts in 
Area C.  
 
A Supplemental Plant List is included which identifies six specific development areas in 
the Desert Ridge project. In each of the six development areas, additional plant 
materials are listed that can be used to supplement the recommended plant list. 
Compliance with the Desert Ridge Plant List and the Supplemental Plant List will be 
enforced by the Desert Ridge Review Board. Tall palm trees (i.e., Date Palm, Fan Palm, 
Mexican Blue Palm) shall be located only in the Village Core, and resort areas;, 
SUPERBLOCK 3 DEVELOPMENT PARCELS, AND parcels 4RH and 5A.
