Main Article Content
Abstract
The work was performed in Agro-Forestry Station Experimental Guisa, Granma in the period between february and june 2015 with the objective to evaluate the behavior of seed germination of the species Hibiscus elatus Sw. from the locations: Guaro, Yara, Bayamo Ship Seeds, Bartolomé Masó and Banes, belonging to the Integrated Forest Enterprises Granma, Holguin and Mayari; was also assessed other parameters such as percent purity, number of seeds per kilogram and probable plants per kg; in the study was obtained that the location Bartolomé Masó is the best in results respect to the germination capacity reporting a 58 percent and the probable plants kilograms with 29098; referring to other aspects evaluated were similar to the other locations.
