  ABSTRACT: The initial stages of the ontogenesis of Capparis spinosa L. (Capparidaceae) were studied for the first time in the conditions of the Tashkent Botanical Garden of the Republic of Uzbekistan. In plants, the seed peel is very dense and hard. Therefore, in laboratory and field conditions, the germination of seeds is low. In natural conditions, the seeds of mature fruits do not germinate for a long time (4 - 5 years). The seeds after undergoing cold stratification gave positive results (70% - 80%). Also, information is given about the nature of the use of its useful properties in the national economy as both forage, medicinal, and honey-bearing use. Plants are quite resistant to xerothermic factors, parasites and diseases. Capparis spinosa is a very promising plant adapted to various environmental conditions and can be used for degraded pastures of desert and foothill regions of the Republic of Uzbekistan.
