ABSTRACT: Lilies are widely recognized as beautiful and ornamental flowers,
renowned throughout the world. They are the most popular perennial plants used
in landscape design, commonly found in gardens and boulevards, but in recent
years, they have also become increasingly popular as houseplants. Lilies have
been known in culture for thousands of years and cultivated as food, medicinal
and ornamental plants, decorating palaces and temples. Today, these garden
flowers occupy one of the leading places in landscaping due to the variety of
forms, aroma and rich flower coloring. The color palette of lilies includes almost
all colors and shades, with the exception of blue tones. Lilies are
distinguished by a long, plentiful flowering, and you can admire them almost
all summer, if you choose the right species and varieties [1]. The British
Royal Horticultural Society, in conjunction with state commissions, is actively
engaged in testing new varieties of lilies in many countries, with the aim of
creating new varieties for international registration. One such cultivar is the
“Lavon” lily, which is characterized by early flowering and entomophilous
traits. As the timing of flower opening during the day is closely related to
the summer dynamics of insect pollinator activity, the “Lavon” lily has the
potential to be an important addition to the world of horticulture. For the
first time in the conditions of closed and open ground in the city of
Samarkand, the morphological features of the flowers of the lily variety “Lavon”
and the biology of flowering were studied. The phenology of this variety was
revealed and its phenospectrum was compiled.
