Abstract

The vase life of cut flowers of gladiolus cv Pink Friendship was found maximum (11.06 days) in the solution of combination of sucrose (4%) and 8-HQC (200 ppm) However, combinations like sucrose 2% + 8-HQC(200 ppm). sucrose 4% + A12(SO4)3 (300 ppm) and sucrose 4% + CoSO4 (400ppm) were also found better in increasing vase lie and quality of flower over control significantly. Whereas longevity of each floret was found maximum (4.57 days) in sucrose 4% + A12(SO4)3 (300ppm.).
