Abstract

Research in species composition and community structure in urban plazas is valuable for optimizing plant landscapes for plazas, improving the ecological security of artificial communities through increasing diversity, and constructing systems of urban, green land. Species composition, ornamental value (of flowers, fruits,leaves, and bodies), and ecological characteristics (frequency and importance value) of woody plants from 24 chief urban plazas in the main districts of Nanjing were determined by field survey. Results showed 1) there were 124 woody plant species, belonging to 91 genera of 53 families. Among these, 62 were tree species, 52 were shrubs, 6 were climbers, and 4 were bamboos. 2) abundant woody plant species, but application of native species was inadequate, primary species were repetitive. 3) planting and arrangement of ornamental plants were not satisfactory. More application of flowering plants, ornamental fruit plants, aromatic plants, as well as the City Tree(Cedrus deodara) and City Flower(Prunus mume) were advocated.
