Abstract
This Every garden design is different and has its identity and style, dictated by site, size, microclimate and the preferences of their creators. The recorded data and analysis conducted for this research included the general landscape design, garden size, and data about the five main categories of soft landscaping, includes trees, shrubs, vines, groundcover and turf. In tropical regions, trees are the most important plant structure in a garden. Foliage-canopy structures and vertical woody species distribution are important factors, as they can influence shading, evapotranspiration and the channeling of the wind.
