Abstract
The phenological observations results of natural origin European larch (Larix decidua Mill.) under the introduction conditions are presented. In the center of the Russian Plain, all larch species are the introducers, so studying their phenology will help determine how well they have adapted to the new conditions in the introduction area. The research was carried out in Nikolskaya lesnaya dacha (Nikolskaya forest estate), located in Moscow region northeastern part at the junction of two forest-growing areas – the spruce-deciduous forests of the Klin-Dmitrov ridge and the pine forests of Meshchera. The research subject was natural origin young (self-seeding and young growth) in B2 conditions in the territory of the near part of the Nikolskaya lesnaya dacha (Nikolskaya forest estate), formed from maternal plantations that have now stand age class VIII. The larch phenological observations program included the study of the main phenological phases (buds swelling, needles budding, needles separation, needles yellowing and needles falling), as well as apical shoots growth biometric measurements during the entire growing season of 2024. The presence ofevergreen needles in natural origin self-seeding European larch was noted. The studied seasonal development full cycle of natural origin young European larch shows that this tree species has acclimatized well to Moscow region north-east conditions, demonstrating a long growing season (194 days) and good growth rates. The data obtained should be used in the forestry care design for natural origin young European larch, which is advisable to perform in the May.
