Parametric applications in landscape architecture are gaining traction as designers realize the full potential of script-based analysis in various stages of design. Planting design is one realm of parametric landscape architecture that is traditionally done manually with books, websites, or other research on hand, thereby keeping its application within the grasp of landscape designers. This discussion proposes a method of using algorithmic design to analyze and specify plant species based on four different measures. Further, it is possible to expand this method in the form of a browser-based program for nondesigners to take part in resilient landscape planting.
