Planting trees in the Dutch public space started in the seventeenth century and cities became famous for its green atmosphere (1). In the agricultural landscape, trees were methodically planted on country estates and along infrastructure, connecting the rural landscape with the cities (2).Nowadays, green historic elements are highly values, but doesn't het the same assigned priority as built heritage.

Therefore, a model 4) for holistic understanding as simultaneous physical, mental, and social manifestation in the public realm will be described 5). By recognizing these different aspects, historic urban green structures can be understood and discussed as part of green blue systems, perceiving their climatological, ecological, landscape architectural, and culturalhistoric values. |
