Introduction of native Israeli plants as new cut flowers.

Israel and its neighbouring countries in the Eastern Mediterranean have been the source of many commercial ornamental plants, especially geophytes. Examples are anemones, ranunculus, cyclamen, hyacinth, Narcissus tazetta, Lilium candidum and several tulips. These species were relatively easy to domesticate. Our plant introduction project includes also several native plants, which have not yet been introduced into commercial cultivation. The introduction projects include many research stages, commencing with the collection of the plants in their native habitat and concluding when the product is introduced commercially. The research included propagation, flowering physiology, postharvest physiology studies and horticultural practices. Several examples of recently introduced plants or in the process of introduction are presented. Among them are geophytes (Oncocyclus irises, Urginea maritima and Scilla hyacinthoides), annuals (Lupinus pilosus and Centaurea crocodylleum) and herbaceous perennials (Er

emostachys laciniata and Helichrysum sanguineum).
