Abstract
Factors affecting the keeping quality of Aranda flowers were investigated.
This included changes in fresh and dry weight, sugar content and water potential of flower before and after harvest; floral stomata; water loss; effect of sucrose, HQS, and STS on flower longevity.
Pulsing with Silver thiosulfate, STS (4 mM) for 10 minutes extended the life of cut Aranda flowers.
