were repeated with the same procedures described above with only anise and muhly grass, and with the omission of leaf tissue nutrient analysis. Sweetspire was omitted based on its lack of tolerance to NaCl concentrations applied in the first run; the

soils used for planting palms in street medians, highway rights-of-way, and many new commercial and residential landscapes in Florida. Physical and nutrient analysis results of four replicate samples of each of these soils was determined by A & L
the optimum concentration, whereas the N and Fe concentration were lower than the critical soil test values ( Obreza and Morgan, 2008 ) ( Supplemental Table 1 ). Leaf nutrient analysis of 10 elements (N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn, and B) showed that

, and shoot and root tissue samples for nutrient analysis. Rooting stage for each treatment was determined using a rooting scale defined by Dole and Gibson (2006) . Tissue N concentration was measured as total Kjeldahl N where protein was converted to
