Abstract

The results of comprehensive evaluation of indicators that characterize the stability of Aesculus carnea Hayne to the action of drought and high temperatures during the vegetative period are presented. It was found that the lethal temperature for the leaves of Red Horse Chestnut is +65…+70 °С. The dynamics of water parameters according to which Aesculus carnea Hayne is characterized as highly drought-resistant species with high adaptive potential was discovered.
