Altisima Tree Installation

More than 30 Chinese pistache trees were planted at Altisima Park to replace decaying liquidambar trees. This project is part of SAMLARC's commitment to maintaining safe and beautiful community spaces - keep an eye out this fall for beautiful crimson foliage! SAMLARC's professional arborists keep a close eye on the tree population for signs of overgrowth and disease. If a tree must be removed, the project is timed to avoid nesting birds - and if possible, to replant the area with a new tree! The Chinese pistache trees are expected to fare well in Rancho Santa Margarita's climate and will become part of SAMLARC's long-term landscape maintenance regimen.
