Keywords:
Lavandula angustifolia Mill., vegetative propagation, cuttings, heteroauxin, rooting, growth stimulators, rooting efficiency.Abstract
Lavandula angustifolia Mill., commonly known as narrow-leaved
lavender, is a perennial aromatic plant belonging to the Lamiaceae family. Its flowers
and essential oil are widely used in the pharmaceutical, perfume, and folk medicine
industries. This study investigates the effectiveness of vegetative propagation methods
of lavender, focusing on cutting propagation and the influence of the growth regulator
heteroauxin. The experiment was conducted in 2024–2025 under greenhouse
conditions in Khiva district, Khorezm region. The results showed that the rooting rate
of cuttings treated with heteroauxin solution reached 83%, while the control group
achieved only 43%.
