Abstract
In experiment, C0: tap water (Control), C1: distilled water, C2: sucrose solution (100 ppm), C3: lemon juice solution (100 ppm), C4: sucrose + lemon juice solution (100 ppm) and C5: GA3 solution was examined to assess vase life of cut rose (Rosa hybrida L.). Experiment was accomplished at the Department of Horticulture, Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka, Bangladesh September 2012 to September 2013. C4 illustrated minimum flower diameter (99.0 mm) with maximum petal number (40.0 petals) and ceiling petal thickness (0.25 mm) on 8th days after treating. Least stem bending (14.30C), petal discoloration score (2.0), freshness of flower (2.5) on 8th days after treating were exposed by C4. Utmost flower longevity (14.0 days) also revealed on C4 whereas least flower longevity was traced in C0 and C5 (8.5 days).
