The main aim of the study is to evaluate plant species used in open and green spaces have different spatial feature in terms of aesthetic, functional and plant diversity. In accordance with this purpose, as a result of observations in the study area with field studies conducted in 8 different types of spatial features, plant diversity were determined and disclosed aspect of in the alpha and beta diversity indices. In addition aesthetic potential of the species diversity in the situations specified in this work places were identified.
Consequently, in areas having different spatial typologies, most of plants existed in homegardens. It was determined that the diversity index values supported the presence of the diversity in this spatials. Furthermore, the other most important result for this study was that spatial differentiation provided different aesthetical values to the plant species.
