Abstract:In this article , the seeds of phoebe chekiangensis were used as the test material, we studied seedling growth characteristics of phoebe bournei by the light medium container seedling-raising and field seedling test by two seedling methods . The results showed that the container seedlings-raising height, ground diameter , main root length, lateral root number, lower weight, ground weight and nursery rate were higher than field seedling, increasing by 15. 0% , 21. 2% , 81. 3%,84. 6%,84. 6%,88% , 185. 6% and 18. 1% respectively; the nursery yield rate of phoebe bournei container see- ding-raising can reach more than 90. 2% . Its container seedling-raising raising can promote the growth of seedlings , im- prove the rate of nursery and ensure the survival rate of afforestation .
