Abstract
The object of the research is some historical facts of the development of medicinal plant production. The subject of the research is the use of medicinal plants in environment-improving technologies and the historical prerequisites for the creation of this direction. The research question was to actualize the issue of improving the environment through the use of essential oil plants. In the 20th century, the relevance of growing medicinal plants in culture increased, new tasks were set for medicinal plant production, specialized institutes were created (VNIHFI, VILAR). The wide range of possibilities of plants opens up new horizons for scientists in the study of ways to improve the environment. VILAR scientists are conducting in-depth research in this direction. The positive effect of plants on the ecological situation and the reduction of the level of morbidity of the population has been proved. The use of medicinal plants in landscaping also contributes to the increase of biodiversity in cultivated cenoses. The Stavropol Botanical Garden is engaged in the selection of an assortment of medicinal plants for use in environment-forming technologies suitable for cultivation in the conditions of the Stavropol Upland. Species of the Lamiaceae family are under study. It has been established that these species are resistant to these climatic conditions, to pests and diseases and are suitable for use in medicinal gardens and parks.
