Full textAbstract:
Many new vegetative annuals are available in the floriculture market today. Their growth habits may be trailing or vigorous and more conducive to hanging basket or container garden culture. Today's gardeners are living busy lives and housing is sometimes confined, with little land on which to garden. These factors all contribute to the popularity of hanging baskets and container gardens. Whereas container garden trials are more common in industry, few universities have added container gardens and hanging baskets to their trial gardens. The objective of the hanging basket and container garden trials at Univ. of Tennessee (UT) initiated in Summer 1999 was to demonstrate and promote this timely trend to commercial growers, landscapers, and the public. An attractive brick walkway and wooden arbor were built by a UT landscape construction class to display the containers and hanging baskets. Several challenges had to be met: funding the purchase of expensive containers; planting and placing the heavy containers in the garden; combining plants within the containers; grouping containers together; labeling plants within the containers; displaying the hanging baskets; maintenance and pruning; and most of all, keeping the containers watered throughout the summer. The color wheel proved to be a useful tool for grouping plants and containers. A handout was developed to guide visitors through the container garden. Despite the challenges, the container garden and hanging basket trials proved to be a successful demonstration and were popular among visitors.

How does hospitality look and feel at a performed hanging? On a nightly basis, Japanese performance artist Hangman Takuzō would hang himself in his Tokyo garden. For a small fee, audience members witnessed the hangings, but were also welcomed as guests, invited to share refreshments, eroding the border between morbid performance ritual and everyday gestures of fellowship.

Full textAbstract:
The lush plant growth of hanging gardens attracted the attention of early explorers, botanists, and pioneers of the Colorado Plateau, a region dominated by bare rock and xeric vegetation. Hanging gardens are small, hydrophytic, herbaceous plant communities (Malanson 1980, Welsh and Toft 1975, Tuhy and MacMahon 1988, Welsh 1989a, Heil et al. 1991) on canyon walls in the entrenched drainage system of the Colorado Plateau. The microclimate of larger hanging gardens contrasts sharply with the surrounding high desert: water is abundant, soils are moist, and canyon walls offer periodic shade. This study was conducted to expand our current knowledge of hanging gardens with baseline data from a comparative ecological approach. Hanging gardens, in seven National Park Service units on the Colorado Plateau, were sampled for vascular plant diversity, distribution, abundance, levels of endemism, and biogeographic origin of endemic taxa. At the consumer level, insects, other arthropods, and small mammals were collected on selected hanging gardens to determine species diversity, distribution, and relative abundance. Since the publication of MacArthur and Wilson's (1967) Theory of Island Biogeography, many attempts have been made to use the positive correlation between island size and species richness to conserve species diversity in fragmented and natural terrestrial habitat islands (see Shafer 1990 for a review). An initial impetus for this study was the island-like appearance of hanging garden habitats. Theoretical work on the species richnessÂarea relationship have prompted many empirical studies testing support for one of three alternate hypotheses: (1) MacArthur and Wilson's (1963, 1967) equilibrium hypothesis, (2) Williams' (1943) (and later Connor and McCoy 1979) habitat diversity hypothesis, and (3) Arrhenius' (1921) passive sampling hypothesis. This study describes the hanging-garden vascular plant species-area relationship and tests support for these alternate hypotheses. The immigration and extinction curves that MacArthur and Wilson (1967) incorporated into their equilibrium hypothesis were recently put into a spatially structured, multispecies metapopulation model (Gotelli 1991) as an alternative to an original metapopulation model and Hanski's (1982) coreÂsatellite species metapopulation model. Gotelli (1991) then introduced a fourth metapopulation model which incorporated both propagule rain and the rescue effect. The last model, as well as the original metapopulation model, and the equilibrium hypothesis (MacArthur and Wilson 1967) based model, predict a unimodal distribution on species occurrence histograms (Gotelli 1991). The coreÂsatellite model predicts a bimodal distribution on species-occurrence histograms. This study was primarily designed to collect distribution and abundance data for hanging-garden plant and bee species as a test of the core-satellite prediction.

Hanging gardens are relatively small, isolated mesophytic communities surrounded by the xeric environment of canyon walls in the entrenched dendritic drainage pattern of the Colorado Plateau (Welsh 1989a, Malanson 1980, Welsh and Toft 1972). Various sandstone formations such as the NavaJo in Zion National Park serve as aquifers which produce permanent seeps or springs when underlain by impervious layers (Welsh and Toft 1972). These reliable sources of water and the associated processes of erosion and sedimentation, allow the formation of biotic communities that starkly contrast with the surrounding desert. Several endemic plant species have been found in Utah hanging garden surveys (Welsh 1989b, Loope 1977, Welsh and Toft 1972) and Dinosaur National Monument (T. Naumann, personal comm.). Virtually nothing is known about the invertebrate fauna. Our specific research objectives are to (1) survey the plant and invertebrate animal communities of hanging gardens in Zion National Park (ZION) and Glen Canyon National Recreation Area (GLCA), (2) map the geographic distribution of the endemics identified and determine levels of endemism within and among parks; (3) determine levels of similarity between each sampled hanging garden plant and insect community, and to (4) determine similarities among plant communities and among insect communities across gardens.

Com o objetivo de realizar um balanço das formulações construídas no Grupo Temático (GT) de “Direito e Marxismo”, do Instituto de Pesquisa, Direitos e Movimentos Sociais (IPDMS), nos dez anos deste, o presente artigo elenca as suas principais atividades, bem como relata as conclusões presentes na produção teórica de dois dos autores que compõem, desde o início, referido grupo. Entre tais conclusões, encontra-se o resgate do debate jurídico soviético revolucionário, para propor uma crítica marxista ao direito com perspectiva estrutural e antinormativista, além de uma projeção de práxis jurídica insurgente, para situar o debate no seio das lutas populares latino-americanas. Assim, busca-se caracterizar os limites de alcance de tais propostas como o equilíbrio catastrófico da crítica jurídica brasileira, localizada em um jardim suspenso entre dois céus.

Research on plant and invertebrate communities of hanging gardens in five parks on the Colorado Plateau is at the half way point. Many interesting and somewhat unanticipated biological and geological questions have arisen, and we are progressing toward our initial research objectives. Plant diversity and community survey work is on schedule and providing insight into biogeographic and community patterns. Insect survey work is slightly behind due to the high abundance and diversity of taxa. Our research objectives for the 1992 field season were to (1) complete the survey of plant and invertebrate animal communities of hanging gardens in Zion National Park (ZION) and Glen Canyon National Recreation Area (GLCA), and to begin a community survey of communities in Capitol Reef National Park (CARE), (2) map the geographic distribution of the endemics identified and determine levels of endemism within and among parks and (3) determine levels of similarity between each sampled hanging garden plant and insect community.

Background and objective: This study analyzed the keywords related to 'garden' based on data in 2014 and 2018, which is before and after the enforcement of the 'Act on the Creation and Furtherance of Arboretums and Gardens' enacted in 2015, in order to identify the behavioral patterns and perception changes of Korean citizens about gardens.Methods: The research scope was limited to Naver Blog, Café, and News created in 2014 and 2018, and a total of 289,214 cases (23,389 from Naver News, 41,721 from Naver Café, 224,104 from Naver Blog) were analyzed using text mining, which is a method of big data analytics. As a result of keyword analysis, the diversity of data and the amount of buzz increased by approximately 9.4% from 138,127 cases in 2014 to 151,087 cases in 2018, proving the change in public perception due to the expanded perception and policy about the scope of gardens.Results: The result of sentiment analysis revealed that, unlike the past in which gardens were merely for tending and decorating, gardens today are undergoing changes in the patterns of use, performing more complicated roles such as taking photographs, dining, having fun, and hanging out. Gardens now coexist with commercial facilities such as restaurants or cafes where people can relax and enjoy sights or food regardless of their sizes or ownerships, which indicates that garden culture is becoming more popular in everyday places. This change is brought by government policies, implying that the nation's legislation and policy support in expanding the garden culture has a significant impact on the patterns of garden use among people today.Conclusion: The analysis results of this study have significance in that they more objectively show the change in citizen perception of gardens in line with the garden culture in Korea that is rapidly spreading. The results can also be effectively used in organizing various garden projects that meet the needs of garden visitors, making plans and developing programs, or managing gardens.

In urban areas garden spaces are reduced in size everyday due to human impact on ecosystem. People living in urban and peri-urban areas don’t have enough space for kitchen gardening or home gardening. The only places that one can grow their own vegetables are terraces and balcony. The main aim of this study is to create awareness on all aspects of growing own organic vegetables and establishment of organic terrace garden. For the establishment of organic terrace garden, space was selected in the department of Botany, Bharathiar University, Coimbatore. The area was covered by using green shade nets. Different sizes of grow bags were selected for the cultivation of vegetables, fruits, greens and medicinal plants. The organic fertilizers and manures like vermicompost, Farm Yard Manure, panchagavya, NPK consortium were used. Neem oil was used to control the pests. Drip irrigation setup was placed in the terrace garden for irrigating the plants. The ornamental plants were planted in the hanging pots and plastic pots to beautify the environment. Students are motivated and trained for the establishment of organic terrace garden and cultivation of vegetables.

Full textAbstract:
Disturbances caused by man-made structures significantly influence the nest site selection of birds. However, the remarkable adaptability of Lonchura striata acuticauda to such disturbances is a fascinating aspect of its behaviour. This adaptability leads to the unique nest distribution of a bird’s community, often favouring human-associated bird species. The present investigation into the nesting preference of Lonchura striata acuticauda for garden plants was conducted in a semi-urban village, Tazhava of Kollam district in Kerala, between August 2021 and September 2022. Nesting affinity of white-rumped munia to different garden plants, the number of nesting attempts and renovation on different plant species, and nesting parameters, such as the number of completed and incompleted nests, clutch size, egg predated, and chick fledged on each plant species were recorded during their breeding period. A total of 45 nests of Lonchura striata acuticauda were observed on different garden plant species in 25 homes with well-maintained gardens; thirty-seven were completed, while eight nests were abandoned in the helmet stage. Lonchura striata acuticauda showed varying nest site preferences; with the highest nest site preference of 36 % on Callisia repens, followed by Epipremnum aureum (27%), Cleodendrum thomsoniae (18%), Bambusa multiplex (7%) and an equal preference of 4% for Plumeria pudica, Ixora taiwanensis and Melia azadirachta. Most of the nests recorded an average clutch size of 3-5 eggs. Eighty-eight percent of the nests constructed on Callisia repens were completed, with 87% of eggs hatched and chick-fledged, with a predation rate of 13%. Nesting munias are protected from the dense foliage and vines of the garden plants where the birds build a nest which also minimises the energy wastage in finding materials for nest building. Repeated nesting attempts and nest renovation on the same plant were observed mainly in hanging ornamental plants.

 Abstract. Various efforts have been made to reduce the use of plastic, namely by using the 3R method or Recycle, Reuse, and Reduce. But the fact is that public knowledge about efforts to reduce the use of plastic is still lacking. Efforts to understand housewives about the dangers of plastic are one solution to reduce the use of plastic. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct training in making hanging gardens as a solution to the problems above. This community service activity aims to increase the knowledge and skills of Dasa Wisma housewives in RT 03 RW 11, Sukorejo Village, Gunungpati District, Semarang City about the importance of using used goods (plastic) as material for making hanging gardens through training and assistance methods. The training materials were delivered by applying the expository method and online discussions via the zoom link. The delivery of training materials was complemented by a tutorial method with feedback. At the time of making the hanging garden, a practical method was used, by inviting housewives to the park to be given training and assistance by implementing Health protocols. The knowledge of the Dasa Wisma housewives who participated in the training and assistance in making hanging gardens at RT 03 RW 11 in Sukorejo Village, Gunungpati District, Semarang City experienced an increase after being given training (expository and assistance methods) which initially tended to be quite and good to very good. The skills of the Dasawisma housewives who participated in the training and assistance in making hanging gardens at RT 03 RW 11, Sukorejo Village, Gunungpati District, Semarang City after receiving practical assistance, 30% were in the very good category, while the remaining 70% was in the good category.

Full textAbstract:
In the challenge of development in dense urban areas and environmental preservation, sustainability is a significant requirement where green facade (vertical greening) is one of those approaches that flourished during the last decade although it is not a new concept. Hanging or vertical garden, vertical vegetable farms, balcony garden, container or planter box greening, green or eco building, green roof or rooftop garden, wall planter, and green envelop are all different aspects of this idea that demonstrate how wide this landscape can be. Greening the building envelope with vegetation can be used as a mean to restore the environmental conditions in dense urban areas. Designers can look for enhanced solutions where the façades are more than tinted glass barrier. Several researches have proven the environmental benefits of green facade on both new and existing buildings. They can be applied for mitigating the effect of urban heat island, increasing biodiversity and ecological value, insulating against environmental impact, outdoor and indoor comfort, social and psychological wellbeing and enhancement of air quality for city dwellers. This article discusses different systems of the green facade as a method of sustainable development.

Full textAbstract:
Based on the information from fundamental historical sources, the oldest origins of civilization can be found in the river valleys of the Tigris and the Euphrates. Throughout Mesopotamia important routes of trade and migration of peoples followed, which influenced the emergence and development of one of the world’s first urban-type civilizations. It was here that the Sumerian civilization evolved, leading to a major cultural and technological breakthrough. Their widely used irrigation canals influenced not only the landscape, but also the entire ecological, economic and political systems of the time, water being a particularly important factor in this civilization. The oldest known gardens have also expanded here, and the Hanging Gardens of Babylon still fuel people's imagination. Due to its unique geographical location, the region has had a profound impact on the surrounding nations, and it is no accident that the Assyrian Imperial Parks of Northern Mesopotamia exerted a great influence on the civilizations that followed. Undoubtedly, ancient Mesopotamia occupies a fundamental place in the development of garden art. With the growing use of roof gardens and the use of plants in modern architectural constructions as an extremely important tool for composition, it is worth exploring more closely the origins of this landscape-relevant process.

Full textAbstract:
The layout of the contemporary Armenian capital Yerevan is based on a 1924 master plan by the Soviet Armenian architect Alexander Tamanyan, who was inspired by the English concept of the 'garden city'. Still, the city has a much longer 'green tradition' that is documented for pre-Soviet times and might reach back to - or at least allude to - the parks and gardens of ancient Mesopotamia. In this article, we give insights into this local green tradition. First, we describe the changing attitude towards the city and urban green space and the city's and city dwellers' changing relationship to nature more generally. We then introduce the Cascade, a Soviet fountain structure, as an example to illustrate some of the recent developments and to map out the tangible and intangible links with the ancient past. Finally, building on our interpretation of the ancient and recent past of Yerevan, we make some suggestions for how to (re)turn the Cascade into a green project that is both traditional and at the same time modern.

Full textAbstract:
People in today's society spend the majority of their waking hours indoors. Individuals are increasingly separated from nature in the fast-paced metropolitan surroundings of the twenty-first century, leading to a variety of physical and mental health concerns. Even in the United States, there are about 27 million office employees who could get sick building syndrome. Interiorscaping addresses this gap by incorporating natural components into indoor settings, which promotes better air quality, stress reduction, and increased productivity. Interior landscaping is the practice of growing and arranging plants indoors. To enrich and enhance the look of the indoor environment, it entails choosing, installing, and maintaining plants. Indoor plants, green walls, and sustainable design ideas all contribute to healthier, more enjoyable living and working environments. The benefits of indoorscaping are: provides privacy, screens unpleasant view, define space, controls traffic, glare reduction, softening architecture. Different types of indoorscaping are being used like: vertical garden, softscaping, terrarium, dish tray garden, hanging garden, windowsill garden, waterscaping, aquascaping, etc. With growing concerns about climate change and the need for environmentally friendly practises, introducing greenery into indoor areas can help with carbon sequestration, energy conservation, and overall ecological balance. Today, Interiorscaping use both modern technology and the experience of nature, which leads to increased creativity and productivity and, in the end, the creation of spaces that has soothing effect on our mind and soul. Hence, not only would interior landscaping save power consumption but also foster the development of human energy in our homes, businesses, neighborhoods and cities.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Torenia fournieri L., commonly known as the wishbone flower, bluewings, or torenia, is a bedding plant from the Scrophulariaceae. Native to Indochina, torenia plants grow well in full sun or partial shade but prefer cool, moist, shaded areas. Torenia are oppositely branched, round in habit, and attain a height of 30 cm. These low-growing annuals are attractive in garden borders but are also well-adapted to pot culture and hanging baskets. Torenia flowers are located on terminal racemes and consist of a five-winged tubular calyx. The common name, wishbone flower, refers to the shape and position of the stamens, which arch together, fusing at the anthers to resemble a chicken wishbone.

Full textAbstract:
We evaluated emerging biopolymer horticultural products that provide fertilizer nutrients to plants (fertilizing biocontainers, pelletized biopolymer fertilizer, and biopolymer fertilizer spikes) for their effectiveness during greenhouse production and garden growth of floriculture crops, and during postproduction culture of container ornamentals. Greenhouse experiments (in 4.5-inch containers) and garden trials were performed with tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), pepper (Capsicum annuum), petunia (Petunia ×hybrida), and marigold (Tagetes patula). Postproduction experiments were performed with 12-inch hanging baskets containing lobelia (Lobelia erinus), trailing petunia (Calibrachoa ×hybrida), and petunia, and with 13-inch patio planters containing zonal geranium (Pelargonium ×hortorum), spikes (Cordyline indivisa), bidens (Bidens ferulifolia), and trailing petunia. Although slightly less effective than synthetic controlled-release fertilizer (CRF), all three nutrient-containing biopolymer horticultural products were sufficient and suitable for providing fertilizer nutrients to plants grown in containers and in garden soil. Results of the postproduction experiment provided proof-of-concept for the effectiveness and potential of biopolymer fertilizer spikes as a sustainable method for providing fertilizer nutrients to containerized plants. The current formulation of pelletized biopolymer fertilizer was somewhat more effective for vegetable crops (pepper and tomato) than for floriculture crops (marigold and petunia). For plants produced in 4.5-inch containers, the combination of the fertilizing biocontainer with no additional fertilizer in the greenhouse, then burying the fertilizing container beneath the plant to degrade and provide nutrients in the garden was very effective. Biopolymer horticultural products represent a promising alternative to petroleum-based plastic containers and synthetic fertilizers. Adoption of some or all of these technologies could improve the environmental sustainability of the horticulture industry without reducing productivity or efficiency, and without increasing labor intensity.

However, the myth of eternal family love, mainly self-sacrificing maternal affection, often becomes the suppressing mechanism upon women. When depicting the roles of wife, mother and daughter, most of Japanese woman writers attempt to reveal how women’s pursuit of their personal freedom and subjectivity would be greatly fettered by the family system. Kakuta Mitsuyo often explores the intricacy of both antagonism and remorse between mother and daughter, through her portrayals of different perspectives from both sides. To employ textual analysis on two representative works of Kakuta, this research is intended to examine the writer&rsquo;s awareness of the said issue and unveil the innermost world depicted in the works. In addition, this paper attempts to clarify how Kakuta uses postmodern methods such as parody to disrupt the metanarrative of the family system, while practicing alternative narratives to construct a female subjectivity which is not bound by the cultural category of &quot;mother&quot; or &quot;daughter.&quot; </p> <p>&nbsp;</p>

Abstract— How to grow more food in less space with less water is the main concept involved in this project work. The former who doesn’t have more land can adopt this system by which more land can be created to produce more food than existing land. Rolling type of sky container garden concept is presented here which can be exposed to the sun with water and fertilizer feeding accessibility.A mini module of giant wheel structure is constructed with 8 compartments for cultivating the crops, the idea of choosing this kind of mechanism is to grow more crops in less ground place/area. This rotary type of multi soil containers attached to the main structure of wheel mechanism operates on a simple wheel mechanism that can minimize the ground area or volume required for cultivating the food items like vegetables, grains, etc. The wheel mechanism is attached to the shaft of high torque DC motor at its centre point at certain height, now this motor is controlled through a remote control unit designed with RF modules and mini embedded systems. The control circuit built with 89C2051 chip & relays is designed to rotate the wheel either in clock wise or in anti-clock wise such that hanging containers attached to this mechanism can be positioned to the ground level accessible point for watering and other maintenance activities. Hanging containers filled with soil are constructed with acrylic sheets. Since it is a prototype module, the basic concept of 8 hanging type of small soil containers are used and are attached to the moving wheel for demo purpose. But for real time applications giant wheels can be constructed with less expenditure. The structure of mechanism occupies very less ground place such that the vacant place also can be used for cultivation. Solar energy is used to drive the wheel, for this purpose, 10W panel is used and its output is used to charge the battery such that in absence of Sun also the mechanism can be activated.

The analysis of fruits morphometric indices of various representatives of the genus Rosa L. growing in the SAFU dendrological garden is given. It is established that the largest fruits are produced by ramanas rose, ramanas «Plena» and cross roses. Indices of fruit parameters were determined, which are characterised by spherical, flattened and elongated shapes. It was found that the largest fruits mass has a ramanas rose and a Scotch rose, and the smallest fruits belong to a Michigan rose. It was observed that the highest percentage of seed content was found in a cinnamon rose, a blue rose and a hanging rose, while their fruits had the maximum number of seeds, except for the blue rose. It is shown that a rose de Mai and a cinnamon rose have the lightest seeds, while the seeds of a cinnamon rode have the highest quality (93.8 %). The minimum indicator of full-grained healthy seeds was observed in Scotch rose «Plena» (75 %).

Full textAbstract:
Impressive its first several seasons on the market, the ornamental sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas) provides nearly carefree cascades of fade-proof yellow-green, purple, or variegated foliage that looks equally good on banks, in beds, or in hanging baskets. A foil for both bright and subdued flowering plants, such as abelmoschus or petunias, ornamental sweetpotatoes add both dramatic color contrasts and dimension to plantings of all kinds. As demonstrated at the 1996 Summer Olympics, large containers filled with ornamental sweetpotatoes, such as `Margarite' and `Blackie', and the muted greys, greens, purples, and golds of artemesia, fountain grass, and lantana create an unusual and dependable planting that holds up to heat and humidity and is generally pest-free. Cultivation requirements are minimal. Ipomea performs best in full sun with good drainage and regular garden soil. However, it will tolerate poor soil, dry conditions, even semi-shade as well. In spite of its horticultural and aesthetic qualitites, Ipomea has still to be utilized fully in home and commercial plantings. As new varieties are introduced and the spectrum of color increases, Ipomea should become a true mainstay of the ornamental industry.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Recent hydrocarbon exploration in western Newfoundland has resulted in six new wells in the Port au Port Peninsula area. Port au Port No.1, drilled in 1994/95, penetrated the Cambro-Ordovician platform and underlying Grenville basement in the hanging wall of the southeast-dipping Round Head Thrust, terminated in the platform succession in the footwall of this basement-involved inversion structure, and discovered the Garden Hill petroleum pool. The most recent well, Shoal Point K-39, was drilled in 1999 to test a model in which the Round Head Thrust loses reverse displacement to the northeast, eventually becoming a normal fault. This model hinged on an interpretation of a seismic reflection survey acquired in 1996 in Port au Port Bay. This survey is now in the public domain. In our interpretation of these data, the Round Head Thrust is associated with another basement-involved feature, the northwest-dipping Piccadilly Bay Fault, which is mapped on Port au Port Peninsula. Active as normal faults in the Taconian foreland, both these faults were later inverted during Acadian orogenesis. The present reverse offset on the Piccadilly Bay Fault was previously interpreted as normal offset on the southeast-dipping Round Head Thrust. Our new interpretation is consistent with mapping on Port au Port Peninsula and north of Stephenville, where all basement-involved faults are inverted and display reverse senses of motion. It also explains spatially restricted, enigmatic reflections adjacent to the faults as carbonate conglomerates of the Cape Cormorant Formation or Daniel’s Harbour Member, units associated with inverted thick-skinned faults. The K-39 well, which targeted the footwall of the Round Head Thrust, actually penetrated the hanging wall of the Piccadilly Bay Fault. This distinction is important because the reservoir model invoked for this play involved preferential karstification and subsequent dolomitization in the footwalls of inverted thick-skinned faults. The apparent magnitude of structural inversion across the Piccadilly Bay Fault suggests other possible structural plays to the northeast of K-39.

Agriculture plays an important role in the economic growth and food security control in developing countries including Rwanda. This research study was carried out in Kigali and Musanze. Urban farming is one way to best use useless places closed inside household fences, resulting in high yields. Due to their short production cycle, Horticultural crops provide a quick response to emergency food needs, particularly in cities. These species have considerable yields that generate more income for farmers when used appropriately. The main objective of this study was to analyze the factors influencing urban farming production, profitability, and contribution to the households’ livelihoods in Rwanda. The population of interest for this research study constituted smallholder farmers of vegetables and fruits in Kigali and Musanze cities. The sampling unit was the garden household. A multistage sampling technique was employed involving purposive sampling of four districts Gasabo, Kicukiro, Nyarugenge, and Musanze. The study used a sample frame of 1085 population and a sample size of 112 respondents. The results from the study indicated that ten factors over fourteen have a positive influence on urban farming production while four have a negative influence in the study area. The results also showed that the productive fruits grown are classified into five classes indicated in Figure 1. The results of the study revealed different places/methods used to grow vegetables/species and fruits such as bags, baskets and basins, hanging baskets, old wheels, pallet gardens, open ground, trellises, arches, shelves, fences window box walls. The results displayed that the crops do well in small areas/places closed inside the household’s fences. The results proved that urban farming contributed to the social economy through different parts example malnutrition control, money saving, and food security. The results pointed out that urban farming production is constrained by some challenges such as small owned parcels, lack of urban farming knowledge, lack of technologies, period of crop maturity, lack of capital, lack of awareness, habitation system, and infrastructures. However, urban farming development should be enhanced to maintain national food security and improve income for farmers.

Humans are essential can not be separated from nature because humans rely heavily on nature for their survival. Currently including natural elements in the design of a building has become a lifestyle and trend, as seen in some commercial buildings, such as Hotels, Shopping Malls that take the theme of nature. Healthy Plaza Avenue is a planned shopping center to fulfill facilities in Kota Baru Parahyangan, a new residential neighborhood that has a vision of an independent green city. Healthy Plaza Avenue design method starts from problem formulation, data collection, design process, and design products. Nature in the space and Nature of the space are two of the three categories of biophilic design principles that are considered to be appropriately applied to the design of Healthy Plaza Avenue. The application of the principles of Nature in the space and nature of the space is seen in the Atrium by placing ornamental plants and shade trees equipped with waterways that boil in the Event Plaza. While in the outside area is a planned Rain Garden that serves in addition to adding beauty also as a catchment and recycling area for the needs of the building. In addition, hanging plants are also placed on the façade of the building to reflect the green elements so that Healthy Plaza Avenue can be harmonious with the environment. It is hoped that the concept of Nature in the Space and Nature of the Space can be in line with the vision of Kota Baru Parahyangan as an independent city that maintains its environmental beauty.

Full textAbstract:
Plants of genus Scaevola (family, Goodeniaceae), commonly known as “fan flowers,” are mostly endemic to Australia. Commercially popular species are Scaevola aemula, S. albida, S. striata, and S. phlebopetala. These plants are used as ground covers in Australia and as hanging baskets, window boxes, and garden bed plants in Europe and America. Two aspects of in vitro culture of Scaevola are reported here; micropropagation and direct shoot regeneration. A number of commercially available cultivars of S. aemula, S. phlebopetala, S. striata and wild-collected S. phlebopetala, S. glandulifera, S. hookeri, and S. ramonissima were used for micropropagation experiments. Micropropagation medium contained salts, vitamins, L-cysteine, sucrose, and agar. Tissue-cultured shoots were rooted in hormone-free medium. A high survival percentage (>95%) was obtained when plants were transferred to soil under glasshouse conditions. Results on in vitro shoot induction and regeneration response of leaf, stem, root, node, and flower explants of two horticulturally important species of the Australian fan flower, Scaevola aemula and Scaevola striata arealso presented. Of all the explants tested, node explants of these species were the first to respond in tissue culture. Maximum number of shoot induction and regeneration was achieved from node explants of Scaevola aemula and node and stem explants of Scaevola striata. More than 95% of the regenerated shoots were rooted on the medium supplemented with 4 mg/L of IBA. The significance of above findings in assisting breeding program for new horticultural desirable cultivars of Australian fan flowers will be discussed.

Objective: To investigate patient, staff, and carer responses to an environmental intervention in an oncology clinic waiting room and evaluate the acceptability of artificial plant materials. Design Postintervention: Cross-sectional survey study. Setting: Oncology outpatient clinic waiting room located in a metropolitan comprehensive cancer center in Australia. Main Outcome Measure: Observer ratings of perceived qualities and effects of lifelike (fake) plants while spending time in the waiting room. Participants: Convenience sample ( N = 143) consisted of 73 cancer patients, 13 staff, 52 carers, and 5 “others” aged between 24 and 89 years ( M = 56, SD = 14.5). Intervention: Artificial plant arrangements, hanging installations, two movable green walls, and one rock garden on wheels placed throughout the outpatients’ clinic waiting room. Results: Eighty-one percent (115/142) of respondents noticed the green features when first entering the waiting room and 67% (90/134) noticed they were artificial. Eighty-one percent (115/142) indicated “like/like a lot” when reporting their first reaction to the green features. Forty-eight percent (68/143) were positively affected and 23% (33/143) were very positively affected. Eighty-one percent (110/135) agreed/strongly agreed that “The greenery brightens the waiting room,” 62% (80/130) agreed/strongly agreed that they “prefer living plants,” and 76% (101/133) agreed/strongly agreed that “‘lifelike’ plants are better than no plants.” Comments included mostly positive appraisals and occasional adverse reactions to artificial plants. No significant differences were found between patients’, staff, and carers’ reactions. Conclusions: The environmental intervention positively impacted patients’, staff, and carers’ perceptions of the oncology waiting room environment. Patients, staff, and carers mostly accepted artificial plants as an alternative design solution to real plants.

Annotation Purpose. Improving the methodology of substantiation of the selection of energy means for performing technological operations in walnut orchards, which is the basis for further determination of their rational parameters. Methods. The research uses the principles of systems analysis, as well as monographic and graph analytical methods. Results. Performing technological operations in walnut orchards requires special features from tractors: movement in the rows of the garden without damaging the tree crown; providing aggregation of symmetrical machines and with lateral displacement; availability of a universal hydraulic system for the drive of working bodies; to provide statistical and dynamic stability when hanging agricultural machines. To achieve this goal, it is advisable to consider the tractor on a two-parameter classification system, ie the transition from traction to traction-energy concept, take into account the traction force of the tractor on the hook and the effective power of the tractor engine. To substantiate the parameters of the energy means of performing technological operations in perennial walnut plantations, an algorithm is proposed that allows taking into account the technical and technological parameters of MTU. It is developed on the basis of information on the technologies of growing walnuts available on the world market and technical means for their implementation. It is developed on the basis of information about the technologies and technical means of walnut production available on the world market and allows carrying out their system-structural analysis. The identification of domestic and foreign energy remedy available on the market to ensure the technological process of walnuts production was carried out and correlation-regression analysis was performed, which allowed establishing the relationship between tractor cost and their parameters: engine power, operating weight. The proposed dependences make it possible to substantiate the rational (optimal) parameters of the technical support of the entire technological process with different subject-production characteristics. Conclusions. Based on the analysis of existing methods of substantiation of parameters of energy remedy for technological operations of agricultural production it is established that specialized methods that would take into account the peculiarities of walnut production absent. A new technique has been developed that will increase the efficiency of substantiation of energy parameters during the technological operations of walnut cultivation. The identification of available on the market energy remedy, machines and tools for technological operations of walnut production is carried out and their parametric and cost indicators are established. Based on these data, a regression analysis was performed, which made it possible to establish the relationships between price and their parametric indicators. Keywords: energy remedy, garden, walnuts, weight, traction force, method, rational parameters.

Though for over two millennia much has been written and said about the Hanging Gardens, they remain elusive. Neither the extensive excavations at the city of Babylon nor the abundant contemporaneous cuneiform records have yielded convincing evidence for these gardens and their associated structures. Herodotus says not a word about them. Instead, we have the descriptions of five later writers, who were themselves quoted and paraphrased by others and whose accounts of the gardens are often opaque, contradictory, and technologically baffling at best.Briefly and in approximate chronological order, the principal sources are as follows: first, the Babyloniaca of Berossus, written about 280 BC, which does not survive save in quotations and condensations from it in other sources, among them two works by the first-century AD Josephus, who twice quotes the short note about the gardens; second, the listing in “On the Seven Wonders”, a text preserved solely in a ninth-century Byzantine codex whose Hellenistic source, often doubted, may be Philo of Byzantium, Alexandrian author of engineering treatises about 250 BC; third, a long description by Diodorus Siculus in the mid-first century BC, which he apparently based on the undoubtedly second-hand accounts in the now lost History of Alexander by Cleitarchus of Alexandria and on the fanciful description of Babylon by Ctesias, a Greek physician at the Persian court around 400 BC; fourth, a passage in Strabo's Geography of the early first century AD, which he may have based on a lost text of Onesicritus, a contemporary of Alexander the Great; and fifth, a passage in the mid-first century AD History of Alexander written by Quintus Curtius Rufus, probably also based on Cleitarchus and Ctesias.

Abstract. Today, researchers' interest in the architecture of the USSR during the late 50s and early 70s of the 20th century is growing rapidly, since these years have left behind an outstanding architectural heritage. Many aspects of industrial architecture are being studied, one of which is the phenomenon of the emergence of atypical author's public buildings. The paper discusses the features of the creation and the current state of the Cinema and Concert Hall "Ukraine" – one of the unique objects of the early 1960s, built in Kharkiv. To achieve the goal, the authors formulated the following research objectives: to consider literary sources that provide general information about the CCH "Ukraine"; find and analyze authors' articles and publications written by a design team of architects, as well as experts in various fields; to classify and summarize the received material; analyze the current state of the structure. The article describes the design site in the city garden named after T. G. Shevchenko, on the site of which there was a summer open-air musical stage, in need of restoration due to the impossibility of its use. Presented is a group of architects who developed the project for the new building, and under whose leadership the construction was carried out. The author's concept of the design solution and the stages of its implementation are considered. The main purpose of the project was showing films, holding concerts of symphonic music, performing by pop groups and soloists, as well as organizing rallies and meetings. The features of space planning (composition, functional zoning) and architectural (interior, external design) solutions of the investigated object are revealed. An innovative, for that time, constructive solution of the structure was analyzed in detail and described – hanging cable-stayed structures of a saddle shape. A brief history of this constructive system is given. Particular attention is paid to the current state of the CCH "Ukraine", since on August 12, 2021, the facility was opened after a long reconstruction. Presented and described are the project proposals for reconstruction, made by the Ukrainian architectural bureau.

The geomorphological, bumble bee pollinator and plant community models developed during the first two field seasons worked well when applied to new sites in Dinosaur National Monument (DINO), Canyonlands National Park CANY), Arches National Park (ARCH), and Natural Bridges National Monument (NABR). Our research objectives for the 1993 field season were to: (1) complete the survey of plant and insect communities of hanging gardens in DINO, ARCH, CANY, and NABR; and (2) determine the geographic distribution of endemic species identified and the level of endemism within and among parks; and (3) complete the Halls Creek area survey for hanging gardens in Capitol Reef National Park (CARE).

Full textAbstract:
Classical sources describing the Hanging Gardens give a wealth of detail which has never matched up with information from cuneiform sources or archaeological finds. This study reconciles them. In doing so it shows how some confusions in Classical accounts may have their origin in Akkadian sources, and are not due simply to misunderstanding and error.The Hanging Gardens of Babylon, one of the Seven Wonders of the world in Classical tradition, were marvellous not merely for being raised upon vaults, but also for an innovative system for watering them. Popularly attributed to Nebuchadnezzar II, of the 6th century B.C., they are not mentioned in any of the copious and remarkably complete written sources for that king's reign, nor have they come to light in extensive excavation of his palaces in Babylon, carried out by a large German team over more than a quarter of a century.

The article highlights the topic of the use of phytodesign methods in the interior of public catering establishments, analyzes the modern world experience in the interior design, as well as the development of phytodesign in our country, identifies its common and distinctive features, and characterizes advantages and disadvantages of the vertical gardening in the interior design of restaurants. Functions of phytodesign in the interior of public catering establishments are identified and the specifics of selection of plants for the vertical gardening in this type of the interior are outlined. Design of the restaurant interior is one of the most important aspects of the catering industry that greatly impacts the success of an establishment. Restaurant owners should make sure that their customers feel comfortable and want to come back to their establishments. This desire depends on many factors, such as tasty cuisine, friendly staff, ingenious and cozy interior, special atmosphere, and a unique company style. The professional use of the greenery in the restaurant interior design encompasses implementation of the author’s concept in the interior decoration with the careful selection of plants based on the planned idea. It is important to ensure the proper and timely care of the greenery and its high-quality maintenance. Phytowalls or vertical gardening are gaining more and more popularity nowadays, since such vertical garden looks very stylish and effective. The use of the greenery is a complex tool and design method that allows to solve a number of tasks in various types of interiors. Public catering is one of the most dynamically developing branches of the economy. In the process of planning and design of the interior, the main focus should be placed on leveraging of the latest achievements of science, technology and equipping with the progressive devices. Having analyzed the analogues of restaurant interior design with the use of phytodesign tools, we should note that domestic analogues of interiors do not fully use the entire range of greenery constructions in public catering establishments. The use of such elements is currently gaining popularity. Moreover, most of the mentioned establishments use the container gardening, while vertical constructions are formed only as an addition. Foreign analogues are an excellent example of well-selected greening practices. Design studios are resorting to more complex greenery methods, such as living plant walls and the use of ampelous hanging plants in ceiling constructions. An increased use of phytodesign tools in the interior of public catering establishments will allow them to gain priority and be more competitive as compared to establishments with a different design concept. Keywords: interior design, phytodesign, vertical gardening, container gardening, living walls, plants, public catering establishments
