Open full text 0 citations

Abstract

Abstract At recommended rates, butanedioic acid mono-(2,2-dimethyIhydrazide) (daminozide) was the most effective in limiting height increase, α-cyclopropyl-α-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5 oyrimidine (ancymidol) was slightly less effective, and (2-chloroethyl) trimethylammonium chloride (chlormequat) had no effect compared to the controls when applied as foliar sprays to Chrysanthemum x morifolium Ramat. cv. Early Golden Hill. There was no significant effect of spray solution pH on controlling height by any of the growth retardants.
