This Abstract. One of the most pressing problems of human society is the impersonality of urban spaces, of which green spaces are an integral part. Plants in an urbanized environment are not only a source of oxygen, noise and gas absorbers, etc., but also an element that unites and connects diverse residential buildings. This raises the question of the self-identification of urban spaces. Problems include a meager assortment, the absence or presence in a single specimen of promising species that are not sufficiently stable in an urban environment. This article discusses the determination of seed productivity in laboratory conditions of plantsOriganum vulgarecollected from Ile Alatau of Kazakhstan and Berberis iliensis Popov collected from the Ile river of Almaty region. Laboratory experiments have shown high germination ofOriganum vulgareand Berberis iliensis seeds, but the germination of seeds collected from different populations is different: for example,Origanum vulgareand Berberis iliensis plants had the highest laboratory germination of № 2 seeds.Origanum vulgareon the seventh day of growth reached 40% in population №1, 44% in population №2 and 41% in population №3. Laboratory productivity for 25 days of growth was 91% in population №1, 95% in population №2, and 87% in population №3. The maximum validity of Berberis iliensis seeds in the second population is 92.5%, and the lowest is 63% suitable for the first population.
