The article presents the results of long-term studies of two species of the genus complex Amorpha L.: A. californica Nutt. and A. fruticosa L., growing in the collection of the arboretum of the Federal Agricultural Research Center for South-East Region, located within the city of Saratov. The morphometric and ecological characteristics of plants are presented based on the results of the studies. The results of the introduction of the studied species have been summed up; an integral assessment of the viability and prospects of plants in new growing conditions for them has been carried out. The prospects for the use of amorphous in artificial plantings of the Saratov Volga region have been determined. The research results can serve as a scientific justification for the development of an assortment of economically valuable adapted introduced species for use in agroforestry landscapes and replenishment of the dendroflora gene pool of the region.
