Colour seems a substantial role in human functioning. Its symbolism is important for recipients in various countries, originating from different cultures. It has been changing throughout years. What has been immutable, is the fact that due to the properly arranged details, it is possible to pass given information to a given recipient. The example illustrating this principle are plant compositions used in landscape architecture. It should be remembered that it is not only the colour which creates the space of a park or a garden. Only professional and intentional combination of forms, shapes and colours allows to receive the required artistic and spatial effect. Obviously, on the basis of such information, park and palace complexes owned by aristocratic families, were created. Example of such complexes are those owned by Henckel von Donnersmarck family, located in the Upper Silesia region. There exactly the colour (both plant and cubature elements) became one of the essential elements forming the whole composition.
