The knowledge on the phenological patterns for a broad group of species is an important tool to elucidate the function and structure of plant communities. Aiming to describe the phenological rhythms of Cerrado species being cultivated and to verify if they follow the patterns observed in the native communities, we recorded, every two weeks along four years, the phenology of reproductive (flowering, and fruiting) and vegetative (leaf shedding and sprouting) processes of 111 species of Cerrado in the Arboretum of Floresta Estadual de Assis, São Paulo State, Brazil. We elaborated a phenogram containing the occurrence of each phenophase in each month, for each species, as well as the frequency of these phenophases during the years of observations. We identified general patterns of fruiting, flowering and leaf dynamics for the whole set of species planted, which correspond to those found in the literature for the phenology of natural communities of Cerrado.
