Descripción
Sumario:We present a catalogue and the analitical data extracted from the popular ornamental flora of the North of Alicante, considering as ‘popular’ the flowerpots cultivated in balconies, doorways, terraces, small homegardens, etc. The total richness of this territory is two thirds higher from other nearby regions overpassing some villages 200 ornamental species and varieties. The autochtonous plants or from older introductions are clearly higher, although nowadays we found reversal sings in this trend. To maintain this tradicional grow, rich in phytogenetic resources, the women’ role is essential. Their experience in technics for vegetal propagation and cultivation allows to maintain the autochtonous rural landscape, confering a high patrimonial value, wich should remain as a identity and quality sign to enhance the tourism in these areas.
