Abstract:
The present investigation was carried out at Lal Baugh Farm, College of Horticulture, Junagadh Agricultural University, Junagadh (Gujarat). During rabi season in the year 2023, in Randomized Block Design with factorial concept having twelve treatments. The result of experiment revealed that individual effect of variety Gladiator recorded maximum fresh weight of flower (17.69 g), dry weight of flower (3.14 g), vase life (7.67 days), in-situ shelf life (11.43 days), number of petals per flower (54.42) and days to first flower bud appearance (23.60 days) was recorded minimum. Meanwhile variety Divine recorded maximum flower diameter (8.94 cm), number of flowers per plant (34.00), number of flowers per plot (680.01) and number of flowers per hectare (15.11 lakh).
In case of nitrogen 60 g/plant recorded maximum fresh weight of flower (13.31 g), dry weight of flower (2.45 g), vase life (7.46 days), flower diameter (8.50 cm), number of petals per flower (47.47), number of flowers per plant (29.75), number of flowers per plot (595.01), number of flowers per hectare (13.22 lakh), whereas minimum days to first flower bud initiation (23.97 days) observed in nitrogen 20 g/plant.
Similarly, it was recorded that 40 g/plant of potassium gave maximum flower diameter (8.52 cm), fresh weight of flower (14.19 g), dry weight of flower (2.47 g), vase life (7.51 days), number of petals per flower (46.59), number of flowers per plant (29.78), number of flowers per plot (595.56), number of flowers per hectare (13.23 lakh), whereas minimum days to first flower bud initiation (24.41 days) observed in potassium 20 g/plant.
