An investigation was carried out to study the effect of post harvest treatments and harvesting stage on
vase life and flower quality of cut Oriental lily cv. Avocado. The results showed that highest vase life (15.83 days)
and vase solution uptake (49.17 ml) was recorded with sucrose (2%) + 5-SSA (200ppm), whereas maximum flower
diameter (15.17 cm) was recorded in vase solution containing sucrose (2%) + 5-SSA (100ppm). Earliest opening of
florets (4.42 days) reported under sucrose (2%) + 5-SSA (200ppm). Effect of treatments was found non-significant in
respect to opening of florets. Harvesting at green bud stage exhibited extended vase life (14.33 days) and higher
vase solution uptake (40.43 ml), whereas maximum flower diameter (14.25 cm) recorded at 75% colour development
stage. Based on the results it is concluded that 5-SSA could be an inexpensive and potential chemical for delaying
senescence and for extending the keeping quality of cut liliums commercially.
