Abstract
Six preservatives were prepared including 20 g/L sucrose,200 mg/L 8-HQC,1 g/L Ca(NO3)2 and different concentration of salicylic acid(SA)to study the fresh-keeping effects of SA on cut carnation flower.The results showed that the six preservatives could promote blossom and water adsorption,increase the flower diameter and maintain the water balance.The optimum concentration of SA was 40 mg/L.
