Summary

Cut Raktagandha roses can be stored wet for 5 days at 3 °C and for 2 days at 8 °C without having any adverse effect on flower quality and vase life, when compared to unstored fresh flowers at ambient temperature. Storing of flowers at 3 °C proved to be better in improving the quality and longevity of cut flowers over those stored at 8 °C.
