    Inventario y evaluación del potencial ornamental de la familia Gesneriaceae en el Cañón del río Melcocho (El Carmen de Viboral, Antioquia, Colombia)
    (Universidad EAFIT, 2023) Peláez Vélez, Samuel; Tuberquia Muñóz, Dino Jesús; Martínez Aguillón, Camila
    The use of native plants in urban green spaces can be beneficial for local wildlife and climate resilience in cities. Despite its large plant biodiversity, there are few native species used for ornamental purposes in Colombia. Gesneriaceae is a family of plants recognized for its great ornamental potential which is highly diverse in Colombia. This study aimed to build an inventory of the Gesneriad species present in the Melcocho river basin, El Carmen de Viboral, Antioquia, and to develop and apply a method of asessment of these species’ ornamental potential. 23 species, distributed in 13 genera were found, 9 being new records for the locality. An asessment system was developed using nine criteria based in morphologic and environmental ornamental attributes, with input from six experts in the field. Eight species were valued as having a high ornamental potential, twelve were classified as having average potential and three as having a low potential. This method was succesful in prioritizing species for future ornamental and landscaping use and can be adapted to other plant groups with similar versatile habits.
