Effect of pulsing, packaging and storage treatments on vaselife of chrysanthemum cut flowers.

 

The effects of various holding, pulsing (16 h) and packaging treatments on the vase life of cut flowers of Chrysanthemum morifolium cultivars Mountaineer and Kundan were investigated in 1994-95. Cut flowers kept in a holding solution of 8-hydroxyquinoline (250 ppm) + sucrose (1.5%) had the longest vase life, the greatest flower diameter and the lowest fresh weight loss in storage. The most effective pulsing solution was benzyladenine (0.025 mM) + silver thiosulfate (0.4 mM) + 8-hydroxyquinoline (250 ppm) + sucrose (5%). Finally, the best packaging treatment was cold storage (4 plus or minus 1 deg C) for 24 h after wrapping in cellophane.
