Abstract: Apocynum seeds as experimental materials,their morphological characteristics were observed, and the different antibacterial treatment, different light conditions and different soaking time on seed germination were researched.The results showed that the seeds of apocynum was ovoid oblong,brown,surface striolate,white silky hairs at the top, which was 2.437 mm long,0.681 mm wide, thickness of the seed coat 0.015 mm, seed size index 0.025. Sterile water treatment had the highest germination rate, as antibacterial reagent was appropriate;light conditions on the germination rate of apocynum effect was not significant, in contrast, apocynum seeds were suitable to germinate in natural light conditions.The seed germination rate and germination potential were highest in 8h, germination time was the shortest, seed soaking treatment should be keep 8 h.
