The article summarizes the many years of experience in introducing into Belarus over 200 decorative forms of 60 species of conifers. Provides information on the biological characteristics of growth and development, resistance to diseases and pests in comparison with the main species. It is substantiated a new methodological approach to identifying perspective plants, based on taking into account the genotypic characteristics of the growth and development of most stable in Belarus cultivars. This approach reduces the time for their initial assessment to 5–6 years. An assessment is made of the regenerative ability of stem cuttings and technological procedures have been developed that made it possible to organize the cultivation of planting material of perspective plants in Belarus.
