Landmark plants


Recommended Posts

We use a lot of plants in our 2D and 3D designs for clients.  We have found that many common and native US plants are not found in the database that comes with Landmark nor in the Resource Manager.  In 2D, we can find something similar but in 3D, we really need the correct species.  What are we missing?  How do we get a more comprehensive plant database?

Looks quite rich and colorful - in the desert.

I thought there are only som e succulents like cactus and so.

 

(Not much clue from botanic but we had at least some Agaves in the past)

 

I find a lot of beauty in the native desert plants in the southwest US, both in form and color.  Yellows are the most dominate bloom color with some purples, oranges, reds, and whites.  White blooms are for the night time pollinators like bats and moths.  We have many plants that bloom at night only to conserve their pollen, which can die in daytime temps.  On the ornamental side of plants, many tropicals do well in desert environments if they are watered.  Cold is usually the limiting factor for plants.  Lots of drought adapted ornamentals for deserts come from Australia and Africa as well 🙂
