Abstract

The article presents the results of a survey of plantings in the park "Ilyich" - one of the objects of landscape architecture in the Levoberezhny district of Voronezh. An inventory of green spaces has been carried out. 15 species belonging to 10 families have been identified. Hanging birch occupies a leading position in the plantation - 21%. Norway maple - 15%, silver maple - 15%, as well as small-leaved linden - 14%, white poplar - 6%. The rest of the species (large-leaved linden, common hawthorn, common ash, white willow, black poplar, bignoniform catalpa, European larch, small-leaved elm, prickly spruce, horse chestnut) in total make up less than 30%. The average category of the state of trees as a whole for the square is 2.5, which indicates the initial stage of weakening of plantations. The main pathological signs of trees in the plantings of the square are drying out of skeletal branches, mechanical damage, drying of the top, as well as settlements of stem pests, sap flow, water shoots on the trunk and branches. Such pathological signs as a frost crack, a fruiting body of mushrooms, and a cancerous tumor are rarely present. In order to restore and strengthen the recreational, architectural, decorative and sanitary and recreational functions of the Ilyich square, it is necessary to carry out a set of measures, including: removal of dying and dead trees; sanitary pruning, removal of overgrowth and excess shoots, treatment of wounds and hollows, treatment of frost cracks, treatment of plants against phytopotagens.
