Urban environments face escalating challenges, e.g. due to uncontrolled urbanization, rapid population growth or climate changes, prompting the exploration of sustainable solutions for enhancing urban green spaces (UGS). For this reason, poplars (Populus L.), due to their rapid growth, wide range adaptability to environmental conditions and versatility of use, would have emerged as very promising. This comprehensive review synthesizes current knowledge regarding poplar's application in urban landscapes, emphasizing its multifaceted contributions and benefits. However, challenges arise from the variable lifespans of different poplar cultivars, necessitating strategic management approaches. Selecting cultivars based on growth rates, root system characteristics, and adaptability to urban conditions is pivotal. Adaptive replanting strategies, incorporating species with varying lifespans, offer solutions to maintain continual greenery in urban landscapes. Collaborative efforts between researchers, urban planners, and policymakers are essential for devising comprehensive strategies that maximize benefits while addressing challenges associated with their variable lifespans. In conclusion, harnessing poplar's potential in urban greenery initiatives requires a balanced approach that capitalizes on their benefits while mitigating challenges. Further research and adaptive strategies are crucial for sustained and effective utilization in creating resilient and vibrant urban landscapes.

Thailand's Ministry of Transport aims to elevate the Den Chai-Chiang Mai double-track railway at Lamphun's Mueang Nga intersection, impacting the city's physical characteristics. This research focuses on harmonizing the large elevated railway with Lamphun's urban landscape and environment. Analyzing perspectives and considering perennial plant species selection, the study enhances visual aesthetics, shading, dust filtration, and heat reduction. Methodologically, it involves summarizing suitable plant information, simulating images with SketchUp, and analyzing before-and-after perspectives. Findings emphasize trees' positive environmental impact, recommending local species like the Cassia and symbolic species like the Thong Kwao for their adaptability and low maintenance.
