The article presents the results of studying the period and stages of ontogeny of the species Salvia officinalis, introduced in the conditions of the Karshi oasis. Studies have established that S. officinalis has completely passed the periods and stages of ontogeny. It has been established that the seeds have a short dormant period, and the germination rate of seeds under laboratory conditions is 92%. It was found that the herbal stage lasts 8-10 days, the juvenile stage lasts 10-15 days, the immature stage lasts 70-74 days, the adult virginal stage lasts 130-135 days.
