LONDON PLANETREE (PLATANUS ACERIFOLIA WILLD.) UNDER CONDITIONS OF STEPPE TOWNS
Abstract
The life form of P. acerifolia in the plantations of Kherson and Kryvyi Rih is almost everywhere a single-stemmed tree. This species is beginning to naturalize in the conditions of Kherson. Several plants of self-seeding origin were found during the research studies. Restoration of plants with young sprouts produced by stumps after cutting the plant trunks in Kherson was also noticed. The leaf apparatus of plants during the growing season is practically not damaged by diseases and pests and no slimy stains are formed on the leaves.
We determined that P. acerifolia is a promising species for wider use in landscaping of the cities of the Black Sea coast and settlements of the Right-Bank Steppe, but in the latter case requires successful selection of exhibition sites for successful growth. These, first of all, should be cozy places protected from the effects of cold winds in winter and dry winds in spring and summer.
