Abstract
The effects of postharvest chemical treatments on cut flowering stems of Gypsophila were evaluated.
Quaternary ammonium compounds were found effective in delaying flower wilting thus prolonging their vase life.
Treatments in which such compounds were combined with sucrose had the added effect of enhancing flower opening.
Silver thiosulphate suppressed the initial opening of flowers, but after a few days there were more open flowers on the stems.
Optimal conditions for treatments are discussed.
