Abstract

Aleppo pine (Pinus halepensis Mill.) has been used for the purpose of afforestation of karst throughout the Šibenik region since the mid-19th century, hence this species can frequently be found in previously established parks. Primarily due to its well-known decorative features and the cultural value, the aim of this work is to evaluate landscape, inventory and present the aesthetic evaluation of green areas with Aleppo pine. For this purpose taxonomic analysis of the species in the green areas with Aleppo pine was conducted. Floristic and survey study was conducted during 2013 in the city of Sibenik. Consequently a taxonomic analysis of green spaces covered by Aleppo pine has been conducted. Concerning the habitus type according to Erhardt et al., 2002, shrub-like growth forms and allochthonous dendrological species are predominant. Based on the results of research on the visual gestalt, as well as following a survey conducted, the conclusion has been reached that the respondents' experience of park areas with Aleppo pine is extremely pleasant.
