Abstract
The present experiment was carried out during 2020 in Central horticulture research farm of Department of Horticulture, SHUATS, Prayagraj. The experiment was conducted in Randomized Block Design with 7 Variety (treatment) replicated thrice. The treatments were V1 Narendra-Jamun-6, V2 Ra-Jamun, V3 Rajendra Jamun-1, V4 Jamrul, V5 Bahadoli, V6 Farida, V7 Goma Priyanka From the present investigation. It is found that V2 Ra-Jamun was found superior in terms of Plant height, Plant spread, number of leaves, plant girth, number of branches per plant, plant spread (E-W and N-S), leaf area and chlorophyll content. The research conducted will help the farmers to select superior Variety of Jamun under Prayagraj agro climatic condition

Conclusion
From the present investigation it may be concluded that Jamun V2 Ra-Jamum resulted in highest survival percentage and vegetative growth parameters like plant height (cm), number of leaves plant-1, number of branches plant-1, stem diameter (cm), plant spread (cm) (e-w), plant spread (cm) (n-s), leaf area (cm2) and chlorophyll content (spad). All the varieties were significantly superior in their survival percentage and vegetative growth parameters over V7 Goma Priyanka. Since this is based on one season trail therefore, further evaluation trails are needed to substantiates the findings. Further research on varietal evaluation of the 7 jamun variety should be carried out for more relevant findings about these 7 varieties of Jamun.
