The present investigation was carried out at the Floriculture Research Farm, ASPEE College of Horticulture, Navsari Agricultural University, Navsari, Gujarat, India during year 2024-25. In the case of spacing maximum flower yield per plot and per hectare were observed in spacing of 45 cm x 45 cm (S₁). While, maximum number of flowers per plant were resulted in wider spacing of 60 cm x 45 cm (S₂). In respect to pinching maximum number of flowers per plant were noticed in T₄ (double pinch). Whereas, T₂ (single pinch at 30 DAT) resulted maximum flower yield per plot and per ha. In case of interaction, greater flower yield per plot, per ha, highest net return (Rs. 4,75,444) and highest BCR (2.31) were resulted from treatment combination S₁T₂ i.e., 45 cm x 45 cm spacing with single pinch at 30 DAT.
