One of the wonderful features of Wailea Golf Estates is the quality of the landscaping on our properties and the view west to the ocean and sunset. It is in all of our interests to maintain our landscaping per the rules of the community as it benefits each of us and our neighbors. Below are some important items to keep in mind, along with a more detailed look at our landscaping policies.

Palm trees are the one tree that can grow above the roof line of your house. However, trimming is essential. Please make sure the palm fronds are trimmed above the horizontal plane as shown in this image. Thanks for keeping our views wonderful!

There are a number of shrubs and trees you should not plant. The African Tulip Tree is one. As MISC, the Maui Invasive Species Committee states, “We now know that African tulip trees are invasive and damaging to Hawaiian ecosystems. Prolific seeders, their papery oatmeal-like seeds blow in the wind for miles.” Areca Palms are also problematic as they grow tall and thick, blocking views. There are Areca Palms in our community. Please keep them trimmed below roof height. And please do not plant any new Areca Palms. Thanks for your cooperation!
