Morphological characteristics of the fruits and seeds, seed germination and seedling survival rate of seven albizias were studied in the nursery. The fruit size and weight were the highest in A. lebbek and the highest number of seeds per fruits was found in A. falcataria. The rate of untreated seed germination was tried in the seed tray, poly bag and seed bod. The highest germination was found in A. procera (76 – 85%) in all conditions and in A. falcataria (85%) only in the seed tray. The germination rate of A. lebbek was very poor in all the conditions. The germination period had no effect on the percentage of germination.

The germinated seedlings in the seed tray and seed bed showed cent percent survival after 7 days transplanting into the poly bags in the shade and the survivality was 85 to 98% in the open sun after 30 days. No significant difference in survival was observed between the seedlings transplanted from the seed tray and seed bed.
