Horticultural vs. Ecological approaches in landscape

Stratham campus, traditional orchard gardens are a priority habitat in the UK. Traditional
orchards form wild habitats, they are composed mainly of domestic fruit and nut species, and they
are not applying fertilizer, varied and inorganic plantations managed are intensively in pesticides
and sometimes the occasional cutting. A pasture ground as traditional gardens are perfect for
enhancing various habitats, fruit trees, hedgerow boundaries, fallen deadwood and facilitate a
variety of wetland areas, and supports a wide array of species and biodiversity as a result (FES,
2010).

(The Forest Commission, 2006).

(Altay et al., 2010).

Also, Devon (1998) studied ……………..whereas, Kendal et al. (2014) performed ……………….
Creswell (2013) done the continuous use of qualitative methods, the low number of participants in
the research, nature of the research, and student study served as the focus of the organization. More
specifically, use a phenomenological approach in trying to understand how a normal student
experience. (Kuo et al., 1998) used a survey and the result is positive in nature, including
stewarding and to draw a face more environmental and social stress strengthen urban social
communities.
