摘要

在城市空间中,灌木被广泛用于建立绿色基础设施。我们认为,考虑到灌木叶片的形态特征,可以进一步增强其提供的功能。因此,我们的目标是认识到在文献中列出的有助于确定植物纹理的叶片的不同形态特征如何共同有助于识别植物的纹理组,并进一步使用观赏灌木将这些组定义为粗糙,中等或精细的纹理类别。对30种热带观赏灌木的叶片形态进行了定量和定性研究。分析表明,叶面积、叶柄长度和节间距离对灌木的3个结构类群有显著影响;细,中,粗,被认为是决定纹理的初步特征。叶毛相关性状(上、下表面毛密度、毛长)和叶缘、叶排列、叶脉等定性形态学性状(叶脉突出)均为次生性状,有助于组织类群的确定。粗质灌木的叶片较大,叶柄较长,节间距离较细质灌木大。我们的建议是,在城市空间绿色基础设施建设过程中,将植物肌理群作为植物选择的标准,在城市绿地有限的情况下,获得除美学之外的其他功能、健康和环境效益,以提高城市居民的生活质量。

Beyond aesthetics: Integration of textural groups of tropical ornamental shrubs into urban planting designs
Shrubs are popularly incorporated to establish green infrastructure in urban spaces. We argue that the functions provided by shrubs could be further enhanced by giving due consideration to their leaf morphological characters. Therefore, our objective was to recognise how the different morphological characters of leaves, listed as contributing to determining the plant texture in literature, would collectively contribute to recognizing textural groups of plants, and further, to define each of these groups into either coarse, medium, or fine textural categories using ornamental shrubs. We investigated the quantitative and qualitative leaf morphology of 30 tropical ornamental shrubs in the Peradeniya area. According to our analysis, leaf area, petiole length, and internodal distance have significantly contributed to the separation of shrubs into three textural groups; fine, medium and coarse, and were considered as preliminary characters that determine the texture. Leaf hair related characters viz., hair densities on upper and lower surfaces, and the length of hairs on both surfaces, together with qualitative morphological characters, viz., leaf margins, leaf arrangement, and prominent venation were identified as secondary characters that contributed to defining textural groups. Shrubs with coarse texture possess significantly larger leaves, longer petioles and internodal distances compared to fine textured group. Our recommendation is to consider plant textural groups as a criterion in the selection of plants for planting designs during the establishment of green infrastructure in urban spaces, enabling the obtaining of benefits beyond aesthetics, which include other functional, health and environmental benefits, to improve the quality of life of city dwellers under the context of limited urban green spaces.
