The number and area sizes of the vertical gardens and potential areas where vertical gardens could be established were identified on site. Three vertical garden applications were determined in different places in Yalova City Center. No vertical gardening was identified in Çiftlikköy District. In Yalova City Center and Çiftlikköy District, a total of 13 different areas where vertical garden could be established were determined. Most of these areas were located in public spaces.
