Abstract: Abstract: The plant community characteristics in four typical residential areas, including Zhonggeng International Mansion, Sansheng Tuscany, Confucianism and Aristocratic Family Garden, Sansheng International Park, were investigated and analyzed to further explore the plant community characteristics and configuration modes in residential areas of Fuzhou City. The results showed that the plant communities were composed of 140 species of 112 genera of 59 families, including 71 species of trees, 41 species of bush, 3 species of liana and 25 species of herbal (including 1 fern). The proportions of plants with different life forms in community were as follows: evergreen trees by 38.57%, deciduous trees by 12.14%, evergreen shrubs by 29.29%, woody vines by 2.14%, herbal by 17.86%. The species of evergreen trees and shrubs in the sample area community were abundant, but the applications of deciduous species and vine were less and the community gradations were not rich enough. The seasonal changes were not obvious and the configuration modes were simple. In addition, the landscape was lack of characteristic.
