Abstract

This study, water use, species factor, and the overall growth of ten landscape plants grown in both 1.6 liter containers (commercial nursery practice) (simulation of landscape conditions) were determined and compared. Water use per plant and species factor were influenced by species. However, this means that the water use of container-grown plants may be used to predict or estimate the water use of the same species that are grown in a landscape situation.Water use per plant, landscape coefficient and overall growth differed by species. Of the ten species tested, shrubs(Hibiscus Rosa- sinensis, Acalypha Godseffiana, Lantana Camara Adhatode Vasica ,Phyllanthus, Dodonaea, , Acalypha Margenata) ground cover( Gazania,) and trees(Ficus Nitida , Ficus Bengamena) , Water use per plant was highest and the same in Hibiscus Rosa- sinensis, Lantana Camara, and Acalypha Margenata (0.21L/day), while Dodonaea had the lowest water use(0.16L/day) for shrubs.   Likewise, the trees water use was highest in Ficus Bengamena (0.36L/day).
