Dražen Grgurović
Sažetak
Plants are selected for planting by designers in agreement with the orderer – investor who must be advised on the justification of his demands.
In selecting plants for parks and gardens the designer must respect some basic professional criteria, which determine the final success of the project.
Ecological conditions for plant growing since without them the desired results will not be achieved regardless of the invested work and money.
1.The functionality of the purpose of a plant or group of plants in a space. This means that a plant of a group of plants in a space are not a coincidence (which is a frequent practice with us) but a well planned activity to create compositions in an integral space.
2.The aesthetic or plastic factor, which is in fact a part of the purpose. It used to be domineering in the classicism of the profession but today it is not decisive any more.
3.Economy in designing and maintaining because what is the use of a beautifully designed garden in there are no funds needed for its creation and maintenance.
4.Genius loci, which means the feeling for the plants and forms suitable for a certain space.
The above requirements, effected in practice, give a picture of the designer. The true master is known by successful designs.
In renewing historical parks and gardens the selection is simple. Plants that were once grown in the place must be used in adequate forms.
Plants are selected on established criteria and orders made by the contractors. It is essential to find a good nursery, which is another problem.
