The paper presents computer method of choosing plants for greenery recomposition of two Katowice's districts - Koszutka and Ligota. According to 25 plant features were determined trees and schrubs for new plantations. Described are aims of recomposition, time strategy for sequential realization, leading ideas and social participation.

In this article we want to present our experiences with greenery designing and possibilities of presentation such designs using CAD programs. Architectural design is more than only building - we always try to show how it is connected with surrounding. Greenery is one of the most important element of space. It creates environment. CAD programs give us a lot of possibilities for presentations of architectural designs, but if they are very limited in as to showing greenery. The very useful thing in computer aided landscaping is the plant specifier and the simulator of plant growth. You can estimate number of trees used for design and shades of tree crowns and quickly correct the plan to avoid effect of shading the windows or other places. CAD programs of the international range are not very adequate to plant selection, because the plants in database are not suitable for Polish climate. For example Landcadd's Plant Specifier contain information about more than 1000 plants of different climate zones from all over the world (trees, shrubs and flowers), but in Poland we use commonly about 1500 of only trees and shrubs, the number of flowers is even bigger, so this specifier seems to be completely inadequate to our country. As to visual presentations of plants in design they are to simple to express the diversity of plant species and their shapes. There are no possibilities for common computers to process such great number of data to create natural outlook of designed trees.

The article describes construction process of HORTUS - Computer Catalogue of Trees, Shrubs and Climbers, elaborated on Faculty of Architecture, Silesian University of Technology. The calogue is original database enabling to specify designed plants. There are collected over 1000 plants with their 25 features - morphological, ecological, ornamental and usable. The catalogue gives possibility to choose the list of plants representing needed features. It can help with typical landscape and in naturalistic composition.
