Description
Summary:The modern direction of landscape architecture to creation of ecological and naturalistic plant communities of perennial herbaceous species for the design of park walking routes in the style of “naturgarten” is highlighted in this paper. The principles of selection of herbaceous perennials developed by Russian scientists for planting in urban environments, as well as the principles of creating combinatorial plantings are given. The range of perennial herbaceous plants proposed to create a ground cover along the park walking route with an indication of their environmental requirements is presented in the Tables. The type and storey of plantings where these plants can be used, the flowering period and in the note the additional features of a particular species are indicated. This material can be further used in the design of structural modules of the ground cover according to the type of natural phytocoenoses for park areas with different environmental conditions.
