Approved Palms/Trees


Approved Trees and Palms Photo

Approved Palms / Trees

SilverLakes Community Association residents are responsible for the maintenance of all palm trees and shade trees within the property boundaries, and up to the edge of the roadway, in accordance with the Association’s Community Standards and Guidelines.

No changes and or additions shall be made to a lot’s front landscaping, side landscaping and/or visible rear landscaping without the prior approval of the Modifications Committee.

In the front elevation of each home - with the exception of the communities of Misty Bay, Misty Harbor, and Bermuda Village - there must at all times be a (3) three palm tree, single trunk grouping, which must be of the same variety at all times. 
(Example: if the homeowner chooses Royal Palms, then all (3) three trees in the front elevation must be single trunk Royal Palms). A variance to this rule may be provided by the Landscape Committee and Modification Committee when replacing trees that are no longer permitted in your respective City. They must have at least (6’) six feet of bark at time of planting.

A list of the recommended trees can be found below. Each homeowner is encouraged to research the palm or tree they intend to install to make sure that the palm or tree is suitable for their location.

Most trees defoliate and drop seed pods. Different species have specific soil, water and fertilizer requirements. Always consult with a licensed Arborist when planting and trimming your trees or palms. Other items to consider are power lines, street lights, underground utilities, utility boxes, street signs, traffic visibility and fire hydrants. Please consult with an arborist and your respective city prior to installing any new trees. Please also review SilverLakes requirements for tree and palm distance from property lines.
