“…Cut flowers of Dendrobium hybrids that are either white or a light color can be successfully tinted (Figure 20). This success of tinting has been reported in many other white colored flowers, including carnation, rose (Sowmeya et al., 2017), China aster (Ranchana et al., 2017), gladiolus (Kumar et al., 2014), tuberose (Mekala et al., 2012), and candytuft (Patil & Dhaduk, 2007). The tinting product can be combined with a preservative solution (Patil & Dhaduk, 2007).…”

Dendrobium, one of the largest genera of tropical orchids, is grown commercially on a large scale with an important economic impact in several ASEAN countries.Dendrobium orchids can be grown in a wide range of climates, but flower production is best under tropical conditions. Due to being the most popular orchid for cut flower production, many hybrids of Dendrobium have been produced with colorful and attractive blooms. Cut flowers of Dendrobium are popular worldwide. In addition, many Dendrobium cultivars can be grown as flowering potted plants and for other purposes such as in medicinal applications and for use in decorative products. Postharvest physiology and technology are important in maintaining the quality of both cut flowers and potted plants from production sites to the marketplace. Plants of the Dendrobium genus also contain a wide diversity of bioactive compounds that can be developed into medicinal and cosmetic products. This review describes the botany, cultivation, postharvest physiology, handling and utilization of Dendrobium.

“…After this, flowers were taken out from the dye solution and placed in the distilled water for recording the parameters viz., colour uptake and intensity, water uptake and vase life. Colour intensity was recorded by RHS colour chart (Sravan Kumar et al, 2014). Vase life was recorded by placing the tinted cut stems in distilled water.…”

“…In roses and carnation, a multi coloured tinting experiment was conducted with 5% dye concentration with an objective to achieve two colours in a single flower at a time (Sowmeya et al, 2017). Gladiolus tinted at tight bud stage (1-2 basal florets show colour) by food dyes showed the higher vase life (Kumar et al, 2014). In tuberose many tinting experiments have been conducted Pavan et al, 2022;Jain et al, 2015;Kashyap et al, 2022).…”

–Value addition is a method of increasing the economic value of a product. Different value addition techniques are used in horticultural products to increase its economic value, especially in floricultural products. Tinting is one of the value addition techniques used in cut flowers to increase the economic and aesthetic value of simple white and light coloured flowers with food colouring dyes in different novel colour shades. The study “Value addition of cut flowers of garland chrysanthemum (Glebionis coronaria) by tinting with artificial food dyes” was conducted in laboratory of Department of Horticulture, Assam Agricultural University, Jorhat, Assam during February 2022, with seven treatments. The observations like Time taken for tinting, Solution uptake, Colour intensity, Aesthetic appeal and vase life were recorded. Colour intensity of the tinted flower colour was compared using the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) Colour Chart. Chocolate food colour dye took the earliest time for full tinting (2.43 hr) and Raspberry red took the longest time for full tinting (3.10 hr). The most aesthetically appealing colours were observed on flowers tinted with Lemon yellow, Apple green and Raspberry red. Longest vase life was observed in control (7.6 days) followed by Lemon yellow (4.3 days). Chocolate and Green observed the lowest vase life (2 days). Cut flowers dyed with Lemon yellow recorded the best vase life among the different food dyes.
