Planting experiments of Glehnia littoralias for the rooftop gardening
Journal of the Japanese Society of Revegetation Technology, 2005 ハマボウフウの屋上緑化素材としての活用を目的に植栽実験を行った。培土土壌を4種類(砂，腐葉土，砂と腐葉土の混合土，人工軽量土)，土壌厚を2種類(25cm，15cm)，植え付け時の根の処理を2種類(無処理，直根を半分に切断)設定し，計16区画の生育を観測した。生残株数から評価すると，腐葉土以外の土壌が適していた。緑葉の被覆面積から判断すると，混合土に半根処理をして植栽する方法か，軽量土が適していた。開花率を高くするには，軽量土か混合土が適していた。生残株数，被覆面積，開花率から総合的に判断して，混合土に半根処理をして植栽するか，人工軽量土に植栽する方法が，ハマボウフウによる屋上緑化に最適と考えられる。
