All of the houses in Shah Alam and Putrajaya study area were surrounded by tropical landscaping, which included different combinations and amounts of plants. The recorded data and analysis conducted for this research included the general landscape design, garden size, and data about the five main categories of soft landscaping, includes trees, shrubs, vines, groundcover and turf.
