(A) Shrubs planted for screening purposes should be given a proper culture and sufficient room in which to grow. Many of the guidelines for tree planting listed in § 153.288 also apply to shrubs. However, because specific requirements vary considerably between shrub types, this subchapter does not attempt to generalize the needs of all shrubs.
