The present study was carried out in an experimental farm in the Department of Floriculture and Landscaping, Dr. Y. S. Parmar University of Horticulture and Forestry, Nauni, Solan (H.P.) during March to December, 2010. The experiment was laid out in split plot design, comprising of eight different planting dates and two spacing, (viz., 30 × 20 cm and 30 × 30 cm) as sub-plot treatment at monthly intervals from, mid-March to October, 2010. Maximum flower size was recorded for April planting date crop, whereas, June planting date gave the best results for plant height and plant spread. However, maximum number of flowers and maximum yield per plant were recorded in March planted crop. Plant height, plant spread flower size and yield per plant were at maximum in a wider spacing S 2 (30 × 30 cm). Maximum number of flowers per plant as well as maximum yield per plant was recorded in March planting at closer spacing S 2 (30 × 20 cm).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
