Abstract: The present studies carried out on Thymus vulgaris, Lavandula angustifolia, Rosmarinus officinalis, Ocimum basilicum and Ocimum americanum which showed the effect of different growth hormones (T1: GA3 1ml, T2: BAP 1mg, T3: Agar 5gm/l, T4: Kinetin 1mg/l + 0.3mg/l. GA3 (semi solid media) and T5:MS control) on plant height, number of nodes, number of shoots, number of roots and number of leaves. The shoot tips and seeds were used as explants, which were cultured in all the five different Media. GA3-1ml showed best response in the multiplication of shoots and plant height, Agar 5gm/l showed best response in root production, semi solid media is best for No. of nodes and No. of leaves as compared to MS control. Afterward adapted and transplanted invitro derivative plants were found 100 %strong in in vivo environments.
