The invention discloses an agrobacterium rhizogenes transformation method for a living body growth cone of a woody plant, which comprises multiple steps of preparing agrobacterium rhizogenes engineering bacterium osmosis transformation liquid, converting and inoculating the living body growth cone, coculturing the growth cone and agrobacterium rhizogenes engineering bacteria, screening resistant sprouts, culturing resistant branches, identifying a transgenic plant, and the like. The invention breaks through two technical bottlenecks of difficult gene transformation and difficult regeneration of the woody plant, is independent of plant genotype and tissue culture, has the advantages of high transformation efficiency, simple operation, low cost, and the like and is suitable for most of woody plants, such as tea trees, and the like, especially the woody plant with full terminal buds.
