For the first time, the biological features (morphological features of vegetative and generative organs) of 8-year-old Colchicum autumnale were studied in the conditions of the introduction of the botanical garden of the National University of Uzbekistan. The biological feature of the studied species is its flowering in autumn, and the fruits are formed in the spring of the following year, from underground ovaries. In our conditions in Tashkent, fruit ripening was observed at the age of two in the first decade of July. The studied species has adapted well (blooms abundantly and forms fruits) to the new place of growth. It should be noted that in many places of the city of Tashkent, the fruits of the plant do not form. However, in the cultural conditions of the botanical garden of the National University of Uzbekistan, fruits and seeds were formed annually, which is the success of the introduction.
