A field experiment was carried out in the wooden canopy of the Department of Horticulture and Garden Engineering, College of Agriculture, University of Anbar. Mycorrhiza and licorice were added to the seedlings of lemongrass plant in order to increase some of the physiological and chemical characteristics in the plant, three levels of Mycorrhiza fungus 10 and 20 grams were added to the media, as for licorice, it was added at a rate of 0, 50 and 100 grams per pot. The highest rate of studied parameters (plant height, number of branches and chlorophyll rate in leaves) was obtained for the high combination of Mycorrhiza and licorice (4 grams of Mycorrhiza and 100 grams of licorice per pot) with a significant difference from the rest of the other combinations.
