Abstract

Application of 200 kg/ha each of nitrogen and phosphorus produced maximum plant height, plant spread, diameter of flower and early flowering. Whereas, the maximum number of branches and flowers/plant with yield of flowers/plant and hectare basis were recorded with 150 kg N/ha and 200 kg P/ha. The maximum weight of single flower was obtained with 150 kg N/ha and 100 kg P/ha in African marigold cv. Pusa Basanti Gainda.
