Abstract: Palmae plants are one of the most important representative groups of plants in the tropical areas in the world,a symbol of the tropical landscape. They are widely used in greening,beautification,purification and landscaping in the tropical and subtropical regions. Their origin,distribution,classification and biological and ecological characteristics were described,and their roles and functions in landscaping were systematically elucidated. Six principles for application of these plants in the landscape were proposed.
