Abstract
The NSW waratah (Telopea speciosissima) is of increasing importance as a cut flower in New Zealand.
Experiments studying its post-harvest handling have shown that refrigeration after harvest is critical for achieving satisfactory performance in the vase.
Flowers harvested at an immature stage had longer vase life than mature flowers and treatment with floral preservatives did not give consistent results.
