Homeowners wishing to plant a tree on their lot must submit their plan to the Architectural Committee prior to purchasing the tree. Following the hurricanes of 2004 many articles have been written recommending that only trees that are native to Florida should be planted in Boca Raton neighborhoods. Please go to the Architectural Committee page for more information.

People often ask about the tree on the corner as you turn right onto Petaluma Drive.

It's a Pandanus Spiralis also known as the screw palm.

Much hardier than the Palms, it is grown throught South Florida and in some countries, the pineapple like fruits are ground into a flour for making a type of bread.
