Abstract
Housing land space is a high proportion of land use in urban areas. Therefore, vegetation of individual gardens contributes to greening of the metropolis and amenity. In this chapter, I surveyed resident’s conscious about greenery for private gardens in a detached houses area. Gardens may be lost through house renovations or ownership changes. Preservation of gardens leads to an increase in greenery in the urban area. I examined resident’s awareness of the inheritance of greenery in a private garden and searched for unfavorable conditions of gardens such as trimming trees. As a result, the transfer side and receiving side had different consciousness. Consciousness for inheritance of greenery is affected by the regional community and social awareness. It is important to initiate an interest in greenery and teach the greenery of a garden contributes to the urban environment. It is also necessary to consider how to maintain the greenery, for example, tree trimming and cleaning, in the community.
