Park Legacy FAQs
When do I need to request by? Is the tree species and planting site request I submitted guaranteed?
All requests must be submitted by January 31st for Spring Tribute Trees or by July 31st for Fall Tribute Trees. Tribute Paver requests are accepted on a rolling basis.
Is my tree species request and/or site ID request guaranteed?
No, your specific requests are not guaranteed upon submission of the request form. Species must align with a Park's general Master Plan and therefore must be confirmed by Denver Forestry. Planting sites might become available/unavailable due to construction or other factors, so your site request cannot be guaranteed unless it has been discussed with Forestry already. If you are set on a species or site ID, please reach out to laura@theparkpeople.org for more information. The Park People and Denver Forestry will work with you to make recommendations and offer alternate options if your species and/or site ID cannot be approved.
When will trees be planted? Can my tree be transplanted?
Tribute Trees are planted within the first two weeks of March and October, depending on weather. As the beginning of March and October approaches, we will determine the best planting time and will send out notifications as soon as possible.
Can my tree be transplanted after it is planted?
No, we will not transplant your tree after it has been planted. This is in order to best promote the survival of the tree. If you have questions about the sites, it is your responsibility to visit your site ID requests and/or ask questions before planitng occurs.
What if my tree dies?
We try to ensure that the right tree is planted in the right place to give each tree the best opportunity to thrive. However, should a Tribute Tree not survive, we will replace the tree at no cost.
Is there a tag or plaque for dedication?
Because of theft, vandalism, and tree maintenance, it is against park policy to install plaques or memorial markers. However, your tree will be marked with a temporary tag for its first few years and an extra tag will be given to you as well. You will also receive a Tree Certificate in the mail after planting has occurred.
Can I participate in tree planting and/or paver installation?
Due to safety concerns and park policy, participation in tree planting and paver installation is limited. Upon request, mulch can be left next to the tree for family and friends to use to complete the planting as part of a ceremony. The mulch must be spread no later than the weekend after the tree has been planted.
When and where will pavers be installed?
Pavers are installed 2-4x per year. They are installed each March and October in conjunction with Tribute Tree planting, and again 1-2x during the summer, depending on volume. Once they're installed, you can find them in the Hazel Gates Woodruff Shade Garden just behind the Eugene Field House, a historic cottage in Washington Park (715 S. Franklin St.)
