   It should be understood that this component of landscape design - landscaping also requires a professional approach, like any other component: surveying, carrying out drainage, installing an irrigation system, etc. After all, planting living plants is for many years, and this is not such an easy job. !

• Ornamental and fruit trees are perhaps the least fashionable element of the site improvement. Trees always attract attention with their diverse beauty: in spring, you can enjoy their flowering and aroma, so relax in the shade in their shade in summer, and in autumn, generous fruits and a riot of foliage colors give the owner many pleasant impressions.
• Large-sized plants - the planting of these trees is distinguished into a separate element of garden landscaping, since working with mature trees with a developed root system and a crown and a height of two meters or more differs from planting trees. Krupnomery allow you to immediately create a finished composition, to see the landscape as it should look like on a landscaping plan.
• Ornamental and berry bushes are a very popular element that creates volume, perfectly holding a decorative form; shrubs, like trees, delight the eye almost all year round.
• Flower beds - a place where there is wander fantasy. Various colors and forms, different season and duration of flowering, annual and perennial. ... Yes, floriculture and gardening are closely linked, it is probably impossible to imagine the landscape without a single flower.
• Lawns are cultivated lawns; they are created either by sowing seeds, or by laying ready-made turf with growing grass - the so-called rolled lawns are of the following types:
• ordinary - intended for circulation; covered with grass from the family of cereals;
• moorish - it consists of meadow and wild flowers, it blooms beautifully almost the whole summer;
• parterny - highly decorative lawn; usually adjacent to a house or other building, has a representative appearance; it is impossible to walk on it;
• sports lawn - covered with grass, resistant to trampling.

Oh, these big children, who grew up in an urbanized world, incomprehensible to us, among the jungle of glass and concrete!

The very nature of ancient Kiev is intended to be a city garden. After all, it is located in a fabulously beautiful area.

Urban landscaping: turning a metropolis into a dream

The constantly growing number of cars, round-the-clock smoking pipes and noise worsen the ecological situation in the city, affect the health and well-being of its inhabitants, and make their stay in it uncomfortable. The best way to solve these problems - urban landscaping. Plants reduce the influence of all the above and many other negative factors. How does this happen?

The impact of gardening on the city

- The crowns of trees absorb noise, which produces transport moving in several rows.
  - Trees trap wind and dust particles that it carries.
  - Greening reduces the carbon dioxide content in the atmosphere, thanks to which oxygen is released, making the air more suitable for breathing.
  - We must not forget that the plants adorn the city. Impressions from the same street before and after landscaping will be completely different.
  - It is proved that among the wildlife, people feel much calmer and more comfortable than among the stone, plastic and metal.
  - During the summer heat humidity decreases. Gardening is necessary to keep it at an acceptable level.
  - Well-maintained green spaces attract people, become a meeting and walking place.
  - In hot weather, trees give shade, which does not allow the pavement to heat up even more. In the shade of the trees arrange a place to rest.

The benefits of gardening are hard to overestimate. We gave only the most significant arguments in favor of gardening, the reasons for the spread of plants in the city are much more.

Greening the city - clean air, great mood

There are various types of landscaping, together they make the city better, cleaner and more beautiful. Here are the main types. urban greening: squares, parks, forest parks, green areas, alleys, front gardens. As can be seen from the list, woody plants play the main role in landscaping, although grasses and shrubs are also important.

Forest parks - it is the improved forest areas located within the city or near it. To beautify the forest park, too thick thickets are removed, they are doing sanitary cutting of trees, they arrange walking paths.

A park  - a large green complex in the city. Inside the parks may be alleys, lawns, solitary trees and plantings. Landscaping parks is important, above all a place to rest, and of course - clean air.

  Front gardens  called green spaces between sidewalks and residential buildings. Trees, shrubs and herbaceous plants are planted in these areas. Tree crowns stop dust and exhaust fumes from the road, reduce noise, and grasses and shrubs clean the air and serve to green the space in front of the house.

Alley  - This is a wide road, on the side of which trees are planted in one or two rows. Trees are also placed in the same way around the roadway.

Boulevards  they call wide walking roads, along the sides (and sometimes in the middle) of which trees are planted and lawns are laid out. They are located in the middle of the big streets, as well as on the embankments. Nearby often have monuments, benches, fountains.

Squares  - These are compact gardens, most of the vegetation in which are herbs and shrubs. Squares are located near intersections, as well as for landscaping densely built areas and industrial zones.

What is known, probably all. These are areas sown with cereal grasses. If flowers are planted interspersed with cereals, such a lawn is called Moorish. There are also ordinary, parterre and Moorish lawns. There are high demands on the ground lawn, it should be perfectly groomed and consist of elite varieties of herbs. A meadow lawn, on the contrary, is not often cut, and it may contain tall grass and even wild flowers.

Planting individual areas

Landscaping urban areas  includes work with specific areas. For example, near schools and kindergartens one cannot plant prickly, poisonous and potentially dangerous plant species for children.

Trees for landscaping the city  should be distinguished by high resistance to air pollution, be undemanding to care. The most hardy plants are suitable for planting trees, because the conditions there are often very far from ideal.

Landscaping sites in front of municipal buildings, shopping and business centers serves primarily to attract attention and create an image. Vertical gardening, roof gardening and other rarely used methods can be used for this. The remaining functions of gardening, in this case, too, are important, although they fade into the background.

The special approach requires landscaping cemeteries. Plants in such places serve to create an atmosphere of peace and quiet, to protect the resting places from the noise, dust and dirt of the big city. The decoration of the cemetery is also important.

Our contribution to gardening

We have been engaged in urban greening since 2002. The experience we acquired during this time would be enough to write an encyclopedia. It’s impossible to fit all of this into one article, so we only raised general questions regarding urban greening. We regularly receive and successfully fulfill state orders, cooperate with individuals and entrepreneurs. We are a friendly and efficient team of professionals acting quickly and efficiently. We design, create, plant greenery and make the world a better place.

The creation of urban plantings with an optimal density of planting trees and shrubs should be based on the general principles of the formation of green spaces. In the selection of plants for creating landscape compositions, the ecological, phytocenotic and decorative principles are most important.

Ecological principlelies in the fact that the selection of plants should be carried out taking into account the biological characteristics of the development of tree-shrub species and the adaptation of plant species and forms to certain growing conditions established in the process of historical plant development. The approximation of growing conditions to natural contributes to the creation in the urban environment of sustainable viable plantations. The inconsistency of growing conditions with the needs of plants affects their growth, development, appearance and, in general, their viability. Plants dramatically change the shape, size, color of leaves, the degree of lining and decoration.

In the formation of urban plantings, it is necessary to take into account the ecological requirements of trees and shrubs. The most important of these are the ratio of plants to light, soil fertility, soil moisture and temperature.

Given the extremely complex and specific conditions of the urban environment, it is advisable to take into account the adaptability of plants to the extreme conditions of the city: drought tolerance, salt, gas, dust, frost resistance.

To ensure the creation of sustainable, durable and viable plantations, characterized by an optimal density of placement of ornamental plants, it is necessary to be guided by the knowledge of the biological characteristics of the development of trees and shrubs and the ecological conditions of growth of plants. In this regard, for the main and additional range of trees and shrubs, the ecological and biological characteristics of the species used for gardening are given (adj.).

Phytocenotic principle.The optimal number of trees and shrubs planted in plantings largely depends on the correct combination of species, providing a harmonious and biological unity of plants. When combining tree-shrub species, it is necessary to take into account the confinement of these plants to certain phytocenoses, i.e. plant communities capable of growing together, especially in landscape gardening compositions. The interaction and interaction of plants can contribute to the development of the planned composition or destroy it. The most favorable relationships between plants within the created groups often occur when the combinations of plants approach the natural combinations — the phytocenoses that have developed as a result of long-term development.

The mutual influence of plants in urban plantings is different. It manifests itself in the mechanical, biophysical and biochemical effects of plants.

Mechanical interaction of plants  takes place in dense thickened plantings and manifests itself in mechanical damage to branches, buds, leaves of trees and shrubs closely spaced to each other.

Biophysical interaction of plants  manifested by the interaction of biofields present in plants. There is data showing that the influence of a plant's biofield affects the distance, 5–10 times larger than the crown diameter. The effect of the biofield of various plants is manifested in different ways. In some cases, the biofield of plants can inhibit the crown of other breeds, cause dying of buds, curvature of the trunk and the subsequent death of nearby plants. Along with this, there is a competition of plants in the struggle for light, soil moisture, batteries, which affects the viability of competing breeds.

Biochemical interaction of plantsmanifested in the interaction of their root systems, which not only absorb the batteries, but also emit special substances into the soil. The consequence of this is the oppression of some plant species or the successful growth of others.

For a number of trees and shrubs, there are data on the most acceptable combination of plants, taking into account their adaptation to each other.

Decorative principle.  When determining the density of trees and shrubs in plantations, the decorative qualities of plants should be taken into account, i.e. external signs due to biological features, environmental conditions and age-related changes.

The appearance of plants, their shape, color, architectonics depend on the hereditary qualities of a given species and the conditions of growth. The decorative effect of plants largely varies with their age: the color, shape and overall habit of plants change significantly.

When forming landscape compositions that meet all aesthetic, architectural, and sanitary-hygienic requirements, it is necessary to take into account the peculiarities of the transformation of plants in time, since a change in the general habit of rocks affects the density of plantations and their decorative effect. In order to create sustainable, durable and highly decorative plantations that would perform their functions both in young and in adulthood, it is necessary to have an idea about the age-related changes of trees and shrubs.

Landscape structure of trees

The sanitary and hygienic and decorative value of urban plantings largely depends on the landscape structure of plantings, i.e. from the ratio in the greened area of ​​open and closed spaces. Optimum microclimatic and comfortable conditions in parks, squares, gardens can be achieved with the right combination of different types of landscapes. The most rational and harmonious combination of open and closed spaces largely determines the optimal density of plantings in urban plantings.

The landscape structure of plantations varies depending on the climatic conditions. Based on the generalization of operating experience of urban plantings and materials of research in the field of studying the sanitizing and microclimatic effect of plantings, the optimum correlations of types of landscapes for various climatic zones of the RSFSR were established. It is revealed that the ratio between open and closed spaces changes in a wide direction from south to north.

Semi-open landscapes are created by thinning, loose plantings with a fullness of plantations of 0.3 - 0.5 and an illumination level of 50 - 70%. In such plantations, the distance between individual trees increases to 8 m. Plots with thinned plantings are characterized by good visibility and airing.

Landscape design of open areas is achieved by free placement of trees and shrubs in the open space of the lawn (single planting).

When creating different types of planting plants, one should take into account not only the crown plant competition in the fight for light, but also the root competition for nutrients and soil moisture.

Depending on the species, trees and shrubs differ in the nature of the root systems. Allocate rocks with surface and core system. These features determine the type of distribution and location of the roots in the soil. When placing rocks in groups, it is necessary to combine plants that have a different nature of the development of root systems, as well as different dynamics of their seasonal growth.

Taking into account these features, the minimum distances between trees and shrubs are determined with joint growth.

Plant type Distance between plants, m

Trees of the first tier 3 - 5

Second tier trees 1,5 - 3

Shrubs:

Large 1.5 - 2.5

Medium 1,5 - 2

Small 0,5 - 0,7

The ratio of trees and shrubs

The rate of planting trees and shrubs in urban areas largely depends on the features of planning decisions and current trends in the development of gardening.
