Ornamental Plants Which Can Be Used in Visual Landscape Improvement in Cold Climate Regions

Plants in cities; help to keep the balance of the ongoing interaction between the environment and the human system by its visual and functional effects . It is possible to develop alternative solutions to eliminate visual pollution by evaluating the color, texture, form, size and similar properties of plant materials and the potential properties of the composition with other inanimate materials such as highlighter, background forming, harmonizing and concealer. The number of ornamental plant species that grow in cold climates is less than in warm climates. For this reason, especially in the landscaping works of urban spaces, it is difficult to create the desired visuality with aesthetically qualified plants that are suitable for the ecology of the area, without creating monotony, with color variety. In this study, the importance of plant and plant compositions in the solution of visual problems in urban environments in cold climatic conditions is emphasized. The potential of ornamental plants that can be used for this purpose in preventing visual pollution is given. It has been shown how to use prominent features of these ornamental plants such as size, form, texture, and vegetation periods to improve visual landscape in urban spaces in a long time. In addition to the design group disciplines that have activity on planning or application basis in the city and its surroundings, Landscape Architecture discipline can provide visual improvement of the studies to be carried out in detail in terms of planting design. In addition to the design group disciplines that are effective on planning or application basis in the city and its surroundings, the studies to be carried out in detail in terms of planting design as a discipline of Landscape Architecture can provide visual improvement.
