Abstract
Objective – to study the first years of scientific work of the wellknown dendrologist, landscape architect L.I. Rubtsov.
Material and methods. When studying literary sources, the historicalscientific method was used. The problematicchronological method provided a sequence of presentation of the material.
Results. The first years of scientific activity of L.I. Rubtsov are studied. It is noted that he began his career in the 1920s in the subtropical districts of the Black Sea coast of the Caucasus. While still studying at the Leningrad Forestry Academy, Leonid Ivanovich examined the plantation of valuable woody plants (boxwood and cork oak) on the territory of Abkhazia. The work of L.I. Rubtsov at the Institute of Humid Subtropics (1933–1935) was analysed. During this period, Leonid Ivanovich made an inventory and evaluation of landscape planning of the Sukhumi arboretum and the park of the state farm “Southern Cultures” (Adler). As a result of these studies, he formulated original conclusions and proposals on the assortment and landscape arrangement of subtropical parks.
Conclusions. The Caucasian period of scientific activity laid the foundation for the formation of Leonid Ivanovich Rubtsov as a dendrologist and landscape architect. The necessity of studying the creative heritage of L.I. Rubtsov, an outstanding dendrologist and landscape architect, is emphasized.
