This research was done at the experimental fields of Cumra High Educational College, Konya, Turkey, in 2008-2010 years. In this study, seeds of Tchihatchewia isatidea, which is endemic as genus, collected from various regions of Turkey. Adaptation trial was done with four replications and some morphological observations were recorded, after germination tests resulted positive. The aim of this study was to improve a new ornamental, dyeing and aromatic plant with long flowering period. According to the results; observed characters changed between 26- 44 cm in plant height; 11- 52.7 cm in canopy diameter; 45- 163 leaves per plant; 6- 120 in branch number; 10.45- 35.86 mm in leaf width; 47.65- 152.74 mm in leaf length; 194- 1091 in capsule number per plant; 8- 26 g in capsule yield per plant; 532- 576 days to flowering; 13-30 days to flowering period; 5.1-10.5 g in 1000 seed weight; 5.1- 17.4 g in seed yield per plant and 561- 1875 kg in seed yield per hectare.
