Abstract

The effect of physiological responses to water quality on vase life of ‘Christian Dior’ cut roses was studied in relation to weight loss, water with high total dissolved salts (low quality) experienced more weight loss and had lower water conductivity and water aonsumption, were more prone to bent neck and had a shorter vase life than those held in distilled, deionized and rain water with low total dissolved salts (high quality). Cut roses held in tap and well water which had been already passed deionizer their vase life was increased.
