Abstract
The goal of this research was to determine the most suitable species of bulbous plants for vertical and rooftop gardens in the context of the temperate climatic zone in Prague. The next issue was to determine how plants respond to individual cardinal directions while growing and how long they stay in bloom. This research focused mainly on plant blooming as this is the most important aesthetic element involved. In the individual years how many plants were in bloom, how long they stayed in bloom, how resilient they were, as well as their total persistence which is the most important factor in future decisions involving utilization of structurally supported gardens were recorded. The family Narcissus that thrived best in south facing part of the vertical garden proved to be the most suitable species for both gardens. On contrary, Scilla siberica proved to be the worst choice for south-facing gardens, both with respect to the length of bloom and the quantity of plants in bloom. Muscari armeniacum reached very balanced results of bloom in all cardinal directions. Galanthus woronowii did not show promise to be suited for either locality, and Crocus ‚King of Striped‘ appeared not to be suitable for vertical gardens.
