Abstract

The influence of three levels of BA on Ornithogalum was carried out at the experimental farm of the Division of Vegetable Science and Floriculture, Faculty of Agriculture, Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology of Jammu, India during the year 2014-15. The results revealed that BA and bulb size significantly regulated the growth, flowering and bulb production in Ornithogalum. The treatment 100 ppm BA with 3-4 cm bulb size recorded maximum vase life (16.66 days) and maximum number of daughter bulbs per plant (5.10) respectively compared to control.
