  • Abstract:
    This publication is a guide to understanding the Iowa Department of

    Transportation’s roadside management programs. It offers descriptions of various

    landscape designs or planting styles used within or adjacent to Iowa’s highway

    rights-of-way, as well as various plant profiles. In addition, this guide will help you

    learn more about the value of plants and their contribution to our environment and

    society.

    This publication is written for persons having little or no formal training in botany,

    and technical terminology has been kept to the minimum necessary to maintain

    standards of accuracy and conciseness in the descriptions.

    Plants are known by common names and botanical names. Most people prefer to

    use common names because they are easier to spell and say. Both have been

    used in this publication.
