Sažetak
Croatia has a nursery production tradition of ornamental horticultural plants that spans more than 150 years. In recent decades, the development of this sector has been influenced by economic conditions and the import of plant material from European Union countries with developed nursery industries, especially Italy and the Netherlands. The use of funds from the Rural Development Programme in recent years has enabled the modernization of production. The aim of this research was to analyze the assortment of planting material in 11 nurseries – two located in continental Croatia and nine in the coastal region. A total of 729 taxa were analyzed with respect to their nativeness, non-nativeness, and invasiveness. In coastal Croatia, 15.6 % of the taxa were native and 84.4 % non-native, of which 1.3 % were invasive. In the continental part, the share of native taxa was 20 %, non-native 80 %, with 4.3 % being invasive species. In terms of growth habit, shrubs (34.5 %) and trees (31.9 %) prevailed in coastal nurseries, while trees (38.3 %) and shrubs (37.4 %) dominated in continental nurseries. Among the most common native species were Cupressus sempervirens L. and Lavandula angustifolia Mill., whereas the most frequently represented non-native species were Abelia × grandiflora (Rovelli ex André) Rehder
and Lagerstroemia indica L. The results indicate a limited presence of native species and the occurrence of invasive ones, highlighting the need to encourage domestic production and to increase the inclusion of native plant material in nursery offerings.
