Recently, with the development of decorative gardening and landscape design, the extension of the assortment of floral and ornamental plants including perennial plants becomes relevant. chrysanthemum Korean – one of the most promising crops for flower decoration of the cities of Belarus, characterized by long flowering periods, unpretentiousness at cultivation, accessible ways of reproduction ways of plants, a wide variety of varieties. In the article present a modified method of comprehensive assessment of chrysanthemum Korean (Chrysanthemum coreanum), recommended for use in industrial landscaping. The method is based on 11 decorative and biological qualities: stability of flower coloration, duration and stability of flowering plants, number of inflorescences, height and shape of the plant, number of leaves on the stem, winter hardiness of plants, resistance to diseases and pests, ability of plants to vegetative reproduction, preservation of decorative qualities without plant transplantation which are important for industrial cultivation of plants. Each qualities is evaluated on a 3-point scale. The sum of points determines the perspective of the variety for use in gardening. Varieties of chrysanthemum that received 27 points or more are very promising plants, 19–26 – a promising plants, below 18 points – to the unpromising plants.The method was used on a collection of chrysanthemum Korean of the Central Botanical Garden of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus. Based on this technique, perspective plant varieties were selected for the green construction of Belarus.

Purpose. To define of phenological and morphological features of A. donax var. versicolor growth during the introduction in the M. M. Gryshko National Botanical Garden of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (NBG). Methods. The object of research was the plants of A. donax var. versicolor in the collection of ornamental grasses of the department of flower and ornamental plants of NBG. The plants were grown on a sunny experimental area during 2014–2020. Since under NBG conditions, A. donax var. versicolor did not enter the flowering phase, the beginning of the phases of spring regrowth, leaf unfolding, and the end of the growing season were recorded. Morphometric parameters and shoot-forming ability were investigated for 3–5 years of cultivation. Results. The beginning and duration of the phases of shoot spring regrowth and the unfolding of leaves of A. donax var. versicolor as well as their dependence on the sum of effective temperatures was established. Thus, spring regrowth begins with renewal buds on May 11 ± 5 days at the effective temperature sums of 226.6 ± 19.7 °С. The phase of leaf development in plants occurred on May 20 ± 7 days. The effective temperature sum at the beginning of this phase was 309.45 ± 11.66 °C. The productivity of shoot formation (1.6 ± 0.3 shoot per plant) under the conditions of introduction was determined. Conclusions. A. donax var. versicolor plants did not have a full cycle of seasonal development in the conditions of the NBG. Plants formed vegetative monocyclic shoots 240–260 cm tall. The duration of their vegetation was 182–189 days. The optimal period for the growth of the ground mass of plants fell on July-August. During this period, the leaves were quickly formed, the number of which was 28.8 ± 6.68 on the shoot. The correlation between the rate of accumulation of effective temperatures and the rate of regrowth of plant shoots was recorded.

The collection of the daffodils of Central Botanical Garden of the NAS of Belarus unites 413 varieties representing 10 garden groups. In order to select daffodils for industrial gardening, a method for comparative assessment of cultivars has been developed, which is presented in this article.The system is based on the evaluation of cultivars of flower-ornamental plants. Cultivars of daffodils are evaluated in stages. In the period of mass flowering, a 5-points scale is used to assess the decorativeness of cultivars and their adaptability to local conditions. For further study, prospective varieties are distinguished, estimated at no lower than 4 points. They are grouped by garden groups, by color and size of flowers, flowering time, height of peduncles and practical use (group planting, cutting, forcing). In the selected groups and subgroups, a comparative assessment of promising varieties is made by of decorative and economic-biological qualities.The decorativeness of the cultivars is proposed to be assessed on a 100-point scale in total by 8 features: color, flower size, heat resistance of the flower, the quality of the perianth stems, the quality of the peduncle, the duration of flowering, abundance of flowering, originality. Each attribute is evaluated on a 5-point scale and multiplied by the coefficient of its significance, respectively, the maximum score of the attributes ranges from 10 to 15 points.The assessment of the economic and biological qualities of cultivars is carried out in total within a 50-point scale in 7 indicators: winter hardiness, spring frost damage, resistance to disease, resistance to pests, resistance to viral infection, reproductive capacity, plant condition. Coefficient of significance of all signs 1–2.Assessment of cultivars of daffodils in total for decorative and economic-biological characteristics is a key moment in the formation of the assortment of daffodils for industrial use. It allows selection of the most decorative, stable and well-breeding varieties in local conditions, estimated at not less than 130 points.

Purpose. To reveal the peculiarities of the seasonal rhythm of growth and development of Itoh Group peony cultivars in the conditions of the M. M. Hryshko National Botanical Garden National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. Methods. The objects of research were plants of 24 cultivars of Itoh Group peonies. The research was conducted on the experimental field of the Department of Flowering and Ornamental Plants of the M. M. Hryshko National Botanical Garden National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine during 2017–2020. The sum of effective temperatures was calculated by summing the daily air temperatures reduced by the biological zero.                 Results. The phenological phases of Ito Group cultivars growth were determined. Phenological spectra for different groups are presented. It was determined that the flowering of early cultivars: ‘First Arrival’, ‘Hillary’, ‘Julia Rose’, ‘Morning Lilac’, ‘Old Rose Dandy’, ‘Sonoma Apricot’ starts at the sum of effective temperatures ≥ 400 °С. The middle group hybrids bloom when the sum of temperatures reaches 450 °С. This group includes: ‘Bartzella’, ‘Callie’s Memory’, ‘Cora Louise’, ‘Lollipop’, ‘Scarlet Heaven’, ‘Sonoma Velvet Ruby’, ‘Yellow Dream’, ‘Yellow Emperor’, ‘Yellow Heaven’, ‘Yellow Waterlily’. Late flowering group includes: ‘Border Charm’, ‘Garden Treasure’, ‘Kopper Kettle’, ‘Pastel Splendor’, ‘Prairie Charm’, ‘Viking Full Moon’, ‘White Emperor’, ‘Yankee Doodle Dandy’; accumulation of effective temperatures above 500 °С is an essential requirement for their flowering. Conclusions. Itoh Group cultivars successfully pass all phases of seasonal development and manage to complete the growing season. Cultivars belong to the spring-summer-autumn-green phenorhythmotype. The onset of the corresponding phenological phases in peonies of the studied group of cultivars requires a certain sum of effective temperatures. Plant outgrowth begins on March 23 – April 2, when the sum of effective temperatures ranges from 20–40 °С. The flowering of varieties characterized as late spring, lasts 6–9 days ± 3–4 days, depending on the varietal characteristics and the year of cultivation. A rapid increase in the sum of effective temperatures up to 700 °C shortens the flowering phase by 4–5 days. An assortment of early (May 22–25 ± 2–3 days), medium (May 26–28 ± 3–5 days) and late-flowering (May 29–31 ± 4–6 days) cultivars has been selected, what ensures the continuity of peony flowering during two months.

Purpose. Analysis of species and varietal diversity of the genus Salvia L. cultivated flora of the world, including Ukraine; prognostic assessment and determination of the directions of ornamental representatives of the genus introduction to the conditions of the Forest-steppe of Ukraine. Methods. Analysis and synthesis, comparison and generalization of information data, introduction forecast. Results. The modern assortment of the genus Salvia is presented in quantitative, taxonomic, arealogical and ecological-cenotic terms. Belonging of the species of the genus to 6 main centers of origin of cultivated plants was determined, and a significant diversity of life forms (nanophanerophytes, microphanerophytes, hamephites, hemicryptophytes, theophytes), naturally formed under the influence of factors determined by different geographical and ecological-phytocenotic conditions of plant growth was reflected. Species assortment of the genus Salvia from the collection fund of the M. M. Gryshko National Botanical Garden of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine was analyzed in comparison with the collections of other Ukrainian botanical gardens. The list of decorative species of the collection, found in the natural flora of Ukraine, was given. Three groups of species have been identified by origin, what determines the conditions for plant cultivation in the Forest-Steppe of Ukraine. In terms of taxonomic structure, introduced sage species belong to eight (according to Bentham, 1833) out of twelve sections, which represent biomorphological diversity and confirm the high introduction potential of these plants.  The species and interspecific hybrids most fully used in breeding work and represented by a significant varietal diversity were distinguished, as well as the sage assortment of the collection of ornamental plants of the NBG was presented. Conclusions. It has been revealed that the species and varietal diversity of the genus Salvia of the world cultivated flora has a significant introduction potential for the Forest-Steppe zone of Ukraine. It was determined that the main base for the introduction of the ornamental species of the genus Salvia in Ukraine is the collection of the M. M. Gryshko National Botanical Garden of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. The main directions of further introduction and breeding work with representatives of the genus Salvia in the Forest-Steppe conditions of Ukraine were highlighted.

The purpose of this work was to investigate ontomorphogenesis of Asphodeline lutea (L.) Rchb. (a rare Mediterranean species of plants for Ukraine) in culture, to analyze the features and describe plants in а different age stages and the sequence of their passage by individuals outside of the natural area in M.M. Gryshko National Botanical Garden of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (Kyiv). In the article detailed morphological descriptions of plants in different age stages are given. The plants were studied in culture. Observations were conducted during 5 year period (2014-2019). The growth and development of individuals in this article are considered as components of ontogenetic changes in plants within a large life cycle. Ontomorphogenesis was studied by conventional methods. For the description of the ontogenetic development degree of individuals, the terms "age-stage" and "age-period" are used. To describe the variation of the passage by individuals of ontogeny stages we divided stages into ontomorphs, which determined the degree of development-degradation of plants. Due to the fact that A. lutea is included in the Red Book of Ukraine (2009), after research of the the specimens they were planted in the soil for further growth. It has been established that A. lutea plants go through four periods of ontomorphogenesis and eight age stages in culture. Plants annually bloom, form seeds and seedlings. As a result of observations of individuals, it has been established that A. lutea plants are drought-resistant and winter-stable in Kyiv, and their annual cycle of development depends on seasonal climatic variations. Asphodeline lutea is a perennial herb with a short rhizome and monocarpic generative shoots, vegetatively mobile. The underground part is a rhizome with renewal buds and stocking roots. Vegetative recovery occurs from underground buds. Pregenerative period lasts 5 years or more. Seedlings and juvenile plаnts are formed during one period of vegetation. Due to the degree of development of juvenile and immature plants they are divided into ontomorphotypes. Such differentiation determines the possibility of multivariate development in individuals. We noted that the virginіle plants can be represented as a separate shoots or а clone, that is formed as a result of "tillering". In the generative period a further vegetative growth is characteristic for A. lutea, which is successfully used for artificial vegetative reproduction of these plants in culture. Formation of subsenile and senile plants is a result of prolonged cultivation in one place or in stressful conditions. In the postgenerative period of ontogenesis for the preservation of plants in a culture, it is necessary to "rejuvenate" them by separating and planting members of clonе to a new place. Due to the biological characteristics of the species, the examination of plants for the study of the ontogenetic structure of cenopopulations is best carried out during flowering, as later on, an overland part of the juvenile species may already be absent, which will affect the assessment of the age range of the population.
