plant resources

Plant species

Jinan plant exhibition area mainly introduces and collects temperate tree species from northeast, northwest, North China and Central South of China. It plans to introduce and cultivate 936 species of 109 families, 533 species of 88 families, 200 genera and nearly 400000 plants have been introduced and cultivated, and more than 10 species of rare and endangered plants (national first and second level protected plants) have been collected and conserved, including yulinghua (< istyrax obassia) Sieb.et Zucc < / I), Phellodendron amurense Rupr. < / I, Fraxinus hupehensis Chu, Shanghai et Su < / I), Zelkova schneideriana < / I, Pteroceltis tatarinowii Maxim. < / I, Ginkgo biloba L. < / I, Metasepuoia glyptostroboides < / I, Liriodendron China (Hemsl.)

At the same time, it has introduced and cultivated some new and excellent foreign plant varieties with high ornamental value, such as Begonia of North America, cherry blossom of Japan and mint of the United States. It is named "demonstration and promotion base of introducing foreign intelligence flower seedlings in Shandong Province". < I (Ref

Regional Configuration

The plant planning adopts the principle of combining the classification system with the specialized garden, which is divided into gymnosperms area and angiosperms area.

According to the classification system of Professor Zheng Wanjun: Cycadaceae, ginkgo bilobaceae, Pinaceae, Cupressaceae, Taxaceae, Podocarpaceae, cephalotaxuaceae.

The angiosperms are divided into dicotyledons (Magnolia) and monocotyledons (Liliaceae) according to the American plant taxonomist klonquist classification system. Dicotyledons (Magnolia) can be divided into six subclasses: Magnolia, hamamelia, caryophylla, caryophylla, Rosa and chrysanthemum. Monocotyledons (Liliaceae) can be divided into five subclasses: areca, Alisma, Commelina, zingiberensis and Liliaceae.

architectural composition

Park setting

Jinan Botanical Garden according to the different ecological requirements of plants, according to the plant classification system arrangement order as the main line, circular layout, cultivation can be collected, can grow healthily in the region of plant species. Taking families and genera as basic units, plants are cultivated, and plant landscaping art is displayed in the form of special plant garden to form distinctive landscape. 12 special botanical gardens including magnolia garden, cherry blossom garden, Begonia Garden, rose garden, crape myrtle pomegranate garden, peony garden, osmanthus garden, chrysanthemum garden, bamboo garden, pine, cypress and ginkgo garden, medicinal fragrance garden, color botanical area and plant science museum have been built. In addition, special parks such as blind botanical garden, Wedding Garden, children's music garden and amusement park have been built.

Topographical planning

In the process of construction, the botanical garden makes full use of the large terrain of high in the West and low in the East, high in the South and low in the north, forming a water system sightseeing system for the whole park. Lakes are set up in some low-lying areas, so that the water circulation achieves the ecological goal of taking natural potential energy as the main and electric energy as the auxiliary. At the same time, the construction amount of infrastructure earthwork is also reduced; Road network construction is also "follow the trend with the slope". The road elevation fluctuates with the current terrain, and is slightly lower than the terrain on both sides, which is not only convenient for rainwater collection and green space protection, but also meets the needs of landscape.

In order to make full use of the existing resources, the two reservoirs in Xishan and Nanling are transformed into shallow water area and Yunying Lake respectively according to the landscape design, so as to give full play to the garden functions of aquatic plants and ground cover plants, and make Wangyun lake and Yunying Lake become a highlight of the Park; At the same time, the underground pipeline has been transformed reasonably, and the orchard, Robinia pseudoacacia forest and Populus tomentosa forest have been thinned reasonably to avoid the vulnerability and disharmony of pure forest. All of them have been preserved and utilized, forming a natural landscape. < I (Ref

land use

During the construction of the botanical garden, the original lime kilns and exposed rock layers in the garden have been well utilized. For example, the landscape of "ancient kilns gushing green" is to make full use of the lime kilns to make water gush out from the bottom of the lime kilns; Some of them clean the rock surface and use plant materials as the rock landscape, such as the "stone sea" of the rock garden population. Through the ingenious design and conception of the designers, they create the garden landscape with local characteristics.

The permeability of hard pavement is fully considered to facilitate the infiltration and retention of rainwater. For example, some secondary roads in the park are paved with permeable bricks and firebricks, and some walking roads in the park are paved with plain soil tamping and fine stones, which not only ensures the use function of the road and reduces the cost, but also ensures the water permeability and air permeability of the road. < I (Ref
