Dark side of the fence: ornamental plants as a source for spontaneous flora of the Czech Republic
Original language description
We studied ornamental plants in the Czech Republic in order to provide detailed information, based on field sampling, on the diversity of taxa grown in cultivation in private gardens. The floristic inventories for 174 sites yielded 1842 taxa of these 76.9% were alien and 420 (22.8%) native. The ornamental flora consisted of not-escaping aliens, escaping aliens and cultivated natives. Most alien ornamentals are native to Asia and Americas. Winter annuals and shrubs are most represented among the commonly planted aliens. The core (persistent) part of the flora comprised 599 taxa (32% of the total number of taxa) and the transient 240 (13%) taxa. The “grey zone between the two included 1003 taxa (55%). The results reported here provide quantitative insights into the role of horticulture as a major pathway of plant invasions.
