Abstract:
The ecological and anatomical characteristics of the endemic Hyacinthella heldreichii (Boiss.) Chouard, which a member of the Asparagaceae family has been investigated. The plant was collected from three different localities in Konya, where it's distributed natural habitat. Soil samples were taken from the distribution areas of the plant. It has been determined that the species generally prefer tinned textured, pH alkaline, too much calcined, high inorganic matter, low phosphorus, adequate potassium, sufficient copper and iron, less zinc, very calcareous and less salty or unsalted soils. Transverse and superficial cross-section of the scape and leaf which belong to plant has taken for anatomical research. The scape and leaf anatomies of the species show common features of monocotyledons. The leaves are amphistomatic and mesophilic.
