Response of preservative chemicals on the shelf life of cut lilium (Lilium spp.) flower cv. ‘Pavia’

Lilium cut flowers have commercial importance and extending their vase life is vital. An increase in the quality quantity can directly viability price realization of commercially important like lilium. Shelf lilium flower influenced by using different preservative chemicals sucrose added solution. Such an extension be achieved via chemical treatment. The trial was carried out to examine effect various concentration two chemicals, AgNO3 (silver nitrate) 8-HQC (8-Hydroxyquinoline citrate) along with on shelf cv. ‘Pavia’ (cross between Asiatic Longiflorum lilies). In experiment, (20%), at 3 concentrations (100, 150, 200 ppm) (50, 75, 100 water (distilled) as control were tested alone combinations. Cut treated one bud opening stage. a completely randomized design (CRD) having 16 treatments three (3) replications. fresh weight relative spike, all solution uptake day, total spike showed best outcome (50 20% treatment combination. Out silver nitrate better results than enhancing ‘Pavia’. Analysis this new exciting method will useful research institutes, producers, wholesalers, retailers, consumers or anyone choose right holding maximize post-harvest flowers.
