ISHS Acta Horticulturae 246: International Symposium on Protected Cultivation of Ornamentals in Mild Winter Climates

EFFECTS OF POST-HARVEST ETHYLENE REMOVAL ON CUT FLOWERING STEMS OF GLADIOLUS

Authors:   C. Merodio, J.L. De la Plaza
Abstract:
The effects of postharvest ethylene removal treatments on cut flowering stems of gladiolus were evaluated. "Green Keeper" was found effective in delaying flower wilting thus prolonging their vase life in white gladiolus and enhancing flower opening in pink gladiolus. Optimal conditions for treatments are discussed.
