Abstract:

Post-harvest studies were attempted using pulsing and simulated transportation on vase life of 29 ornamental cut foliages under Shevaroy hills at Horticultural Research Station, Yercaud. Holding solution containing Sucrose 5% + AgNO3 50 ppm significantly increased vase life of Dracaena fragrans ‘Massangeana’, Heliconia rostrata, Philodendron red emerald and Dracaena fragrans ‘lemon lime’. Pulsing solution containing Sucrose 5%+ AgNO3100 ppm significantly increased vase life of Cordyline chocolate queen, Nephrolepis cordifolia, Cordyline terminalis and Cordylne compacta. The study also revealed that vase life durations ranged from 6.00 to 15.00 days.


Keywords: Cut stems, Sucrose, Silver Nitrate and Packing materials
