Horticultural evaluation of woody plants in the National Cemetery Martin, Slovakia

Abstract

In this article we present the results of horticultural evaluation of woody plants in the National Cemetery in Martin. There have been evaluated 486 woody plants, representing 43 taxons from 25 species. The obtained data reveal that 265 woody plants are of a very low horticultural value, corresponding to the degrees 1 and 2; 192 of them are acceptable (degree 3), and 29 are of a high value (degree 5). The Pearson's correlation coefficient (r) was used for expressing the relation between the horticultural value and size of the woody plants evaluated.
