Abstract
This study was carried out to compare with climbing type and hanging type in the wall covering area and wall covering pattern. For an experiment four adhesive climbing plants was chosen ; Parthenocissus tricuspidata, Ficous pumila, Hedera rhombea and Bignonia capreolata.
The experiment was performed in the field. The main factor are the wall coveringtypes ;(a) climbing type, (b) hanging type and the subfactor are the amount of insolations:(a) south side, (b) north side of wooden wall.
Measurement of wall photograph used PICS (picture input camera system: GT-20).
The results of experiment are as follows;(a) In the wall covering area the climbing type is better hanging type in every climbing plants.(b) In the hanging type, wall covering area of Hedera rhombea, Ficus pumila, Bignonia capreolata in order.(c) The amount of insolation is greater role in Hedera rhombea and Ficus pumila than the others.(b) In wall covering pattern per a plant, climbed plant shows a pyramidic pattern and hanged one makes a strip pattern.
