| Abstract | ||||
| Two field experiments at (2016-2017) seasons were conducted to study the effect of lithovit at concentrations of 1 and 2 g/l for once, twice and thrice times application individually at 30 days interval to improve vegetative growth, flowering and chemical contents ofEchinacea purpurea (L.)The obtained results showed that spraying Echinacea purpurea (L.) plants with lithovit at 2g/l for three times application in the form of foliar sprays at 30 days interval led to improve plant growth and yield characters expressed as plant height, number of leaves and flowers, fresh and dry weights of plant. Also, chemical constituents of N, P, K and total sugars%, phenol compound and photosynthetic pigments(total chlorophyll and carotenoids). Finally, it could be recommend to treat Echinacea purpurea (L.) plants by lithovit at the concentration 2g/l three times as foliar spray to achieve the best results regarding vegetative growth, flowering and chemical composition of plant under Egyptian conditions. | ||||
