Postharvest Quality and Vase Life of Anthurium Commercially Grown in Southern Thailand

Postharvest quality and vase life of six anthurium(Anthurium andraeanum L.) cultivars commercially grown in southern of Thailand, namely Pistache, Angle, Marshall, Rosa, Sunglow and Tropical, were investigated. Cut flowers were held  at 25 °C and 90% RH. The results showed that Pistache had the longest vase life of 25.80 days, while Angel, Marshall, Rosa, Sunglow and Tropicalhad a vase life of 22.6, 17.6, 17.0, 16.2 and15.4 days, respectively. Pistache had unchanged fresh weight and hue angle with the highest water uptake compared to the others. Spathe gloss loss and spadix senescence occurred most slowly in Pistache. Moreover, chilling injury was investigated in Rosa, Marshall andSunglow anthuriums stored at 4 °C. It was found that Rosa had the most was most susceptible to chilling injury and showed brown spathe and spadix when stored for 5 days. Its spathe and spadix completely turnedbrown on day 20. Marshall and Sunglow started to show chilling injury symptoms on day 10 and their spathes and spadixes completely turned brown with chilling injury scores of 5 and 3 on day 20.
