Abstract:
Sustainability and successful utilize of plants in gardens and landscape will be achieved by using proper plant in the right place. Hence landscape uses and aesthetical values of plants must be determined. Therefore, the present study were conducted to survey woody ornamental plants located in Cairo Festival City gardens, CairoGovernorate, Egypt through 2018 and 2019 as well as to determine their uses and values in terms of landscaping. Form beauty, ornamental foliage, ornamental fruit, ornamental flowers, and fragrance were took as aesthetical values parameters while landscape uses were recorded by the existing uses and potential uses of each plant. As a result of the study, totally 83 woody plant species belong to 33 families were recorded and they follow trees (40%), palms (12%), shrubs (41%), and vines (7%). Moreover, it has been found that Schinus molle, Plumeria alba, and Duranta erecta are attractive for four parameters of aesthetical value and the most of species are attractive for their ornamental foliage (32%). Also, Tecoma capensis, Cupressus sempervirens, Ficus benjamina, Plumbago auriculataare detected to be in nine different landscape uses and the most of species are recommended to be used as a specimen (68 species).
