Post Harvest vase life of cut flowers of three cultivars of Kangaroo Paw
The vase life of cut flowers of three commercial cultivars of kangaroo paw (Anigozanthos sp., cultivars ‘Regal Claw’, ‘Harmony’ and ‘Gold Fever’) was determined in relation to sucrose and sodium thiosulphate (STS) pulsing and dry storage. The vase life of ‘Gold Fever’ was extended from 3.5 weeks following pulsing in water to 5 weeks following pulsing in 2.5% sucrose.
