Plants for urban gardening. Assortment of trees and shrubs
- Basic assortment
- Additional assortment
- Limited range
- Determination of the list of plants
In cities with a large population, dense residential, industrial and public buildings, a dense network of roads, there is a progressive deterioration of the environment: dustiness, high concentration of toxic emissions from industrial enterprises, noise levels exceeding the maximum permissible medical standards.
nine0013
Green spaces in cities, industrial areas, recreation areas play an important role in solving the issues of improving and protecting the external environment. Green spaces play an important architectural and compositional role in the landscape of a modern city, soften the severity of architecture; reducing wind speed, noise level, humidifying and purifying the air, regulating the air temperature, sterilizing the air with phytoncides, create comfortable conditions for work and rest.
Trees and shrubs are the main material for green building. The species composition (range) of woody and shrubby plants determines the architectural qualities of plantings, their sanitary and hygienic properties, durability and economic efficiency of use. According to the sum of indicators - the stability and durability of the species in given natural conditions and the conditions of a particular landscaping object (street, park, industrial zone, etc.), according to decorative qualities - the rocks grown for landscaping are divided into the main, additional and limited assortment.

Limited range
The limited range consists of flowering shrubs and plants with an architectural crown shape, as well as species that require additional care and protection from adverse conditions, and is intended mainly for collection plantings:
Determining the list of plants
When establishing a list of plants for a specific object, it is necessary that it correspond to the intended purpose and architectural design of the object and take into account:
1. the specifics of the object, environmental factors and the functions of plantings that they will perform;
2. biological features and architectural qualities of plants, their relation to the environment where they will grow.
The growth and development of plants depend on the condition of the soil, its fertility, humidity and solar illumination of the area.
Particular attention should be paid to coniferous species, which determine the decorative effect of objects in winter.
When placing trees and shrubs on the site, it is necessary to take into account the main biometric indicators - plant height, width, height, density of their crowns.
nine0013
The height of the plant is taken as its height at maturity under the best growing conditions.
In total, six classes of woody plants are distinguished by height:
The width of the tree crown is determined by the span of the branches in meters:
Crown height is taken into account as a percentage of the total tree height. For shrubs, an important indicator is the width of their above-ground part:
When designing, the density (openwork) of the tree crown should be taken into account. Density is determined by the number of gaps in the crown, expressed as a percentage.
According to the density of the crown, the trees are divided into:
Pay attention to the speed of tree growth. Trees are divided into:
It is also necessary to take into account light-requiring and shade-tolerant plants, their exactingness to soils, drought resistance and frost resistance. nine0013
The ratio of species to light:
1. Light-loving species are Siberian larch, Scots pine, common ash, Cossack juniper.
2. Shade-tolerant species are: yews, various types of spruces, Siberian fir, lindens.
The ratio of species to heat:
1. Heat-loving species are: honey locust, white locust, hornbeam elm.
2. Medium heat-loving species are: English oak, Norway maple, common ash, Amur velvet.
nine0301 3. Cold-resistant species - balsam poplar, birch, mountain ash, Siberian and European spruce, Siberian fir, Scotch pine and Siberian pine.
Attitude to gases and smoke:
1. Relatively smoke and gas resistant - prickly spruce, western thuja, Siberian larch, Tatar maple, Hungarian lilac, linden, elm, poplar.
2. Non-gas-resistant - fir, spruce, Siberian, Scotch pine, Weymouth, drooping birch, common ash. nine0013
Seedlings of ornamental trees and shrubs for urban landscaping in central Russia is a priority activity of the Green City Firm nursery.

ON Voronina NEW TREES FOR THE OLD TOWN
In the last decades of the 20th century, the system of growing large ornamental woody plants in Russia was destroyed. The lands of most urban nurseries are built up with residential and industrial buildings as unnecessary. The theory of cultivation and planting of large woody plants, preserved in the literature, refers us to the 50-70s.
Descriptions of the practice of those years testify to numerous successful cases of large-sized transplants. However, the modern domestic practice of urban gardening cannot offer anything worthy of attention or widespread implementation. Technologies for growing ornamental large-sized plants have not been developed in our country for a long time. nine0013
With the development of private horticulture, landscape firms have turned their attention to the west. Rapidly developing Poland offered the Russian landscape architect small in size, numerous in assortment and inexpensive plants for gardens and gardens. But economic and political interstate problems upset the emerging bond. The Russian "landscaper" rushed into the forests and began, with the help of heavy equipment and manually, to "dig large-sized". The results of aggression turned out to be deplorable both for plants and for their sellers - buyers. nine0013
The emerging need for large woody plants for cities experiencing natural and artificial decay of landscaping systems is reflected in the longing of the urban landscaper for red maples, columnar oaks and pines, weeping firs.
A never-before-seen variety of trees is offered to readers in the glossy pages of popular landscape design magazines. The townspeople have a special love for mountain and common pine bonsai, as well as small blue Christmas trees, which, in the views of the layman, should not outgrow the size of a small lawn in front of the house in the garden. nine0013
In the first years of our century, progressive gardeners in Moscow brought, to the surprise of the whole of Russia, ten-meter chestnuts, ornamental red-leaved apple trees, adult lindens and blue spruces from Germany. The theater square in Moscow, the motorway along the Moskva River underwent a complete reconstruction of landscaping. The new lindens near the Kremlin in Moscow had a height of more than 5 m. After planting, the trees did not feel very cheerful, they got sick, but they all survived and after two years seemed natural for the surrounding urban spaces. nine0013
Provincial domestic cities in the conditions of limited budget, intensive internal reconstruction, building compaction and mass elimination of emergency trees suddenly became empty.
"Green devastation" has long been evident not only to tourists, but also to local residents. The ruins of old wooden outbuildings, collapsed poplars, maples and old acacias still seem to be a natural and permanent feature of the urban environment.
On the central city streets and squares, the city authorities begin to implement a program to clean the city from old, diseased and weed trees. Residents are protesting and asking: "And then what?" Then new trees should be planted and, most likely, of foreign origin, because their own will grow from small seedlings only after a few decades, provided the nurseries are revived. nine0013
Realizing the problem, the specialists began looking for large new trees for Russian cities. At the exhibition "Flowers 2005", held at the All-Russian Exhibition Center in Moscow, we met with a company that inspires confidence with its large trees and professional approach to urban gardening. Upon closer acquaintance, it turned out that the Lorberg company, one of the largest private firms in Europe, which grows woody plants for the cities of the world, is located 30 km from Berlin.
The production of the nursery began in 1843. The family business was founded by the great-grandfather of today's owner Stefan Lorberg. After the war, the nursery ended up on the territory of East Berlin and became state-owned, and the Lorbergs continued their business in West Berlin. After the reunification of Germany, the nursery was again returned to the owners. Today it is the largest nursery in Europe, with an area of 500 hectares, and products are supplied to England, France, China and a lot to Russia. nine0013
Here everything is done according to science, taking into account long practical experience, with the test of time, in accordance with international standards, which are adhered to meticulously and carefully. The nursery almost does not use fertilizers, twice a year they do soil analysis. The range of plants is more than 1000 different species. These are alley standard trees, columnar, pyramidal forms (oaks, pines, mountain ash, maples, junipers), trees on trellises, trees with an umbrella crown, bonsai, hedges, trees for berso.
The nursery grows many plants that can grow in a polluted urban environment. Some have hard-surfaced leaves, such as red-leaved oak or varietal lilacs, while others have a thick protective coating that gives them a beautiful blue color. There are blue pines, junipers, spruces with unusual, almost white needles. An elm has been bred that is not affected by Dutch disease. The symmetrical crowns of elms are ideal for creating avenues along highways. In addition, they can grow on poor urban soils. nine0013
The nursery is famous for topiary art, keeps and develops its secrets of shaping and grafting. Some unusual forms are genetically fixed in the form of a crown. Topiary art demonstrates high cylindrical forms of tree crowns: columns, porticos, arches, focusing the eye on important viewpoints. Larch, mountain ash, sea buckthorn, linden, maple are planted in green galleries - berso. The art of shearing creates a flat green canopy that resembles a roof over tree trunks in a ken-cons planting technique.
A tree with a narrow flat vertical crown, placed along a narrow street of multi-storey buildings, will allow utilities to pass by the crown, which is important for modern cramped cities. In a narrow courtyard or along a driveway in a lawn strip, woody plants with a narrow-columnar crown are in demand: oaks, mountain ash, maples, pines, junipers. Such forms attract attention with active dynamics and can help the landscape artist to form a harmonious accent-dominant composition. nine0013
The number of trees recommended for planting per 1 hectare of park area should not be more than 200-150 pieces. In the conditions of urban development - the number of trees per 1 hectare is calculated in tens and even units, so special attention should be paid to the quality of woody plants. Every tree in the urban environment is a valuable object. It must be protected from damage, provided with an irrigation system, taken into account, inventoried. Specialists-dendrologists should monitor his health as carefully as a doctor does for a person.
An important role is played by tree fences, which can be considered as an independent design element. nine0013
Citizens' ideas about the flora of cities can be greatly expanded. Usually only in botanical gardens you can see such rare plants as Serbian nana spruce, Canadian spruce konik, Brever spruce or inverse, although these plants can live on school and hospital plots, in the squares near administrative buildings. One tree can serve as the only dominant in a cramped yard.
A modern city with tall buildings forms a deep shadow at ground level. Such shady places are often found in old parks. Traditional lawns in such cases can be replaced by rhododendron and heather gardens. Ground cover herbaceous plants, dwarf shrubs, euonymus, creeping forms of junipers, ornamental grasses and wormwood can make the surface visible from the window of a bus or apartment meaningful and varied. nine0013
In central Russia, there are few forms with a pyramidal crown, although narrow-columnar forms are associated in the viewer with the warm Black Sea coast, recreation, resort, and create a special mood.
