Abstract
The effects of bulb temperature during the cultivation period on bud development and flowering of Hippeastrum (amaryllis) were investigated.
Bulb temperature treatments ranged from 15 to 25°C. Premature flowering occurred at 15 and 17°C. At higher bulb temperature, larger bulbs with more leaves developed, but the percentage of bulb dry matter decreased.
The number of potentially flowering buds increased, while the length of the leaf-bud cycle decreased with temperature.
Bud desiccation and Fusarium infection occurred at the highest temperature levels.
Optimum bulb temperature for flower development was found to be 23°C.
