Type of article: Article

Summary

Cut cv. Madelon rose buds do not open satisfactorily when kept under low light conditions, in contrast to cv. Sonia buds. Adding sucrose to the keeping solution or storage in high light helped Madelon buds to open. Other factors possibly involved in promoting flower bud opening in Madelon and Sonia are discussed, but no complete explanation is yet available.
