To improve landscape characteristics in genus Callicarpa plants,the pollination,fruit development and progeny characteristics were investigated using C.dichotoma and C.bodinieri as parents.Results showed that no parthenogensis existed and no fruits obtained from the inbreeding of two tested species.The fruit setting ratio of C.dichotoma and C.bodinieri in natural crossing was up to 93.08% and 98.08%,respectively.In artificial crossing,the fruit setting ratio of 95.24% could be obtained but it decreased to 26.21%-37.07% during fruit development for external injury.The availability of successful crossing was confirmed from the leaves morphology of offspring varying between the parents.The coefficient variation in plant height,crown,and quantity of primary branches of offspring plants of C.dichotoma×C.bodinieri was up to 118.96%，125.06% and 130.62%,respectively,much higher than that of the counter-junctions combination.Excellent offsprings could be obtained easily using C.dichotoma as female parent and C.bodinieri as male parent.
