Abstract:In order to understand the over-summer ability of 17 introduced plants in Guangzhou, the heat tolerance analysis was carried out based on the field growth status, chlorophyll content, leaf temperature and other indicators of the plants.The experimental results showed that the 17 introduced plants were divided into heat tolerant groups and heat intolerant groups through cluster analysis (Ward minimum variance). The heat tolerant group has stable characteristics under the high temperature and high humidity environment of Guangzhou in summer, including Panicum virgatum , Hemerocallis fulva , Crocosmia × crocosmiiflora ,Vitex agnus-castus and Oenothera lindheimeri. The remaining 12 species of plants are heat intolerant groups, which are prone to symptoms such as yellowing and wilting of leaves under high temperature and high humidity environment, and their growth is poor and heat tolerance is average.
