Summary: By research of the influence of mineral fertilizers and growth regulators the choice of some sorts of perennials is to be evaluated as well as pot and cut flower plant. The best technology for growth is to be elaborated in view of providing for the production of flowers. The following perannials were chosen for the examination: Aster novae-angliae, Aster novae-belgii, Astilbe x arendsii, Achillea filipendulina, Coreopsis verticillata, Rudbeckia fulgida and Solidago caesia. Except for the influence of the growth regulator it is possible to regulate the beginning, duration and richness of blossom of some perennials by photoperiodical reaction as it was shown in Aster species case. Research of vegetative multiplication of the growth regulators on some sorts of the Corylus species is carried aut in the field of dendrological production.

Keywords: Cut flower, flowering pot plants, growth regulators, daminozide,IBA, vegetative multiplication, fertilization, Aster, Astilbe, Coreopsis, Corylus

Research goals: The aim of the research is to evaluate the suitability of cultivation of some cut flower and flowering pot perennials to en large their assortments on the market and to examine the influence of mineral fertilizers and growth regulators onf growth and quality of perennials. A research of a wai of vegetative multiplication by Corylus colurna and Corylus avellana "Heterophylla" cuts and establisting the existance of an interaction between the relating factors in this trial are also the aim of this study. The best technology for growth is to be elaborated in view of providing a model for the production of flowers.
