Abstract: The present work entitled as effect of watering levels and different mulching on vegetativeand flowering characters of marigold plant under lathhouse conditions. A pot experiment wasconducted by using randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications (eachreplication containing four plants) to evaluate morphological (vegetative growth and floweringparameter) and proline content attributes that can be used for characterization of drought tolerancein two factors (watering levels and mulching). All flowering and yield parameters. The early flowerbud emergence (78.176 and 74.583 days) was observed in treatment un-mulch and when wateringwith 50% respectively and it was significantly compared to other triads, followed by (71.667 day)obtain in treatment without much with 50% watering. Flower bud anthesis (39.389and 40.500 days)was observed in treatment un-mulch and when watering with 50% respectively and it wassignificantly compared to other triads, followed by (36.667 day) obtain in treatment without muchwith 50% watering. The interaction between two factors of mulch and watering shows the highlysignificant value of plant height (74.667 cm) obtained when plants mulched with green grass with100% irrigation.
