The article presents the results of evaluating the thousand-seed weight of several introduced woody species based on 2025 data, with comparison to published values for corresponding species and cultivar analogues. The aim of the study was to provide an indirect assessment of the prospects for using introduced woody plants in urban landscaping of the Central Forest-Steppe region. Weather conditions in 2025 were analyzed, including the temperature regime and moisture availability during the growing season. The comparison showed that for most studied species the thousand-seed weight fell within the species-specific range or was close to literature values, indicating the preservation of generative function under the new growing conditions. The results confirm the ability of introduced woody plants to produce viable seed material even under contrasting weather conditions and highlight the importance of considering climatic factors when assessing the success of plant introduction.
