The map shows a planting plan for various locations in Section 1M, near station 337+50 and milepost 112.5 on the Blue Ridge Parkway. The map was designed and drawn by Tarter in October of 1965. It was recommended by Arthur H. Beyer, supervising landscape architect, in November of 1965, and approved by Sam P. Weems, Superintendent, in November of 1965. The map includes a plant list, identifying the quantity, names, size, and other notes regarding each plant in the planting area. There is a map of the planting area with the intended plantings identified, and two sketches of the finished planting area, located in the bottom right and top left corners of the map. The area was planted in March of 1966 and replacement planting completed in April of 1967.
