| Summary: | The paper describes some examples from Paris and Helsinki areas, where trees are essential landscape elements. It is typical in France to plant trees around town squares, market places and along streets and roads. In Finland trees are almost always kept close to the house, together with other vegetation protecting the entrance and windows. These traditional uses of trees should be studied to serve landscape management. The paper is based on a lecture given in the seminar âThe forest as a Finnish cultural entityâ, held in Helsinki in 1986. The PDF includes a summary in Finnish. |
