Effect of Stem Length and Stage of Harvest on Vase-Life of Cut Flowers in Tuberose (Polianthes tuberosa L.) Cv. Double

A study was carried out to explore the effect of length of stem and stage of harvest on vase life and display quality of tuberose. As regards stem length, 90 cm stem length (L4) had longest vase life, maximum uptake of water, minimum loss-uptake ratio, maximum fresh weight and percentage of opened f...

As regards stem length, 90 cm stem length (L4) had longest vase life, maximum uptake of water, minimum loss-uptake ratio, maximum fresh weight and percentage of opened florets, and, lowest percentage of abscised floret; whereas, 60 cm stem length (L2) enhanced longevity of individual florets.
