Abstract: Determining the leaf moisture potential in 16 tree species collected from Baotou park,correlation of leaf moisture potential and soil moisture content showed that some species were high moisture potential and delayed desiccate species,such as Chinese pine,P.glabra,sophora,Chinese wax,periploca et al; some were sub-high moisture potential and delayed desiccate species,such as flowering almond,privet,Manchu cherry,sorbaria kirilowii,et al.;some were low moisture potential and tolerated desiccate species,such as spruce,rose;some were sub-low moisture potential and tolerated desiccate species,such as arbor vitae,meadow sweet,clove, acacia,hankow willow.

Key words: Species in park, Moisture, Restriction factors, Leaf moisture potential, Soil moisture content
