Summary:

      As plant material has great visual and functional importance and it is often used within landscape architecture, it can be easily said that it is one of the most important physical components of landscape architecture and landscape planning. Owing to recent improvements in biotechnology and gene researches, it is possible to use any plant species more easily and in the desired quantity. In this research, a native species of Black Sea Region of Turkey, Sorbus torminalis L.Crants, was examined as an important plant material for landscape architecture and some information regarding its vegetative and generative seedling methods and its adaptation to the outer media were provided for the implementers.

This study performed in four stages. In the first stage, the determination of Sorbus torminalis L. Crantz seeds’ stratification process (cold stratification and acid process application) , in the second stage, determination of taking root percentages from Sorbus torminalis L. Crantz’s soft and hard cuttings, in the third stage, production of Sorbus torminalis L. Crantz’s embryos and buds with the method of tissue culture in the MS-LS media and the adaptation of the seedlings to the environment, then in the last stage, searched for determination of the importance for Landscape Architecture.
