In this study, the potential of use in the landscape area of some woody plants that naturally spread in the flora of Elazig was investigated. As a result of the researches, it was determined that 29 genera and 54 natural plant taxa belonging to 18 families in the region have potential landscape plant characteristics. Families with the most taxa; Rosaceae (19 taxa), Salicaceae (4 taxa), and Fagaceae (4 taxa). The genera with the most taxa are; Crataegus, Rosa and Quercus with 4 taxa each, followed by Acer, Tamarix and Sorbus with 3 taxa each.. As a result of the evaluation, the woody plants with landscape potential in the region are used for ornamentation, aesthetics, fence, ground cover, etc. It has been found that it can be used for many purposes.
