Abstract
This study examined the growth characteristics of broad-leaved container seedlings of Stewartia pseudocamellia, Tilia manshurica and Chionanthus retusus in relation to the raw material properties of the container medium in a green house for 4 months in order to develop optimum container medium for broad-leaved container seedlings. Among the container media used, the high level of the height growth and root collar diameter growth of broad-leaved container seedlings of Stewartia pseudocamellia, Tilia manshurica, Chionanthus retusus was found in the container media with relatively more cocopeat or peatmoss, and the dry matter production of the aerial part and the subterranean part. Also, concerning physiological characteristics, the photosynthetic rate of broad-leaved container seedlings increased in proportion to the volume of cocopeat and peatmoss in the container media. The effect of container media on the growth of broad-leaved container seedlings needs continuous study on the irrigation and fertilization programs along with the study on physiological characteristics including growth characteristics, biomass production and photosynthesis.
