Postharvest physiology and prolonging vase life of cut freesia (Freesia refracta).

The effects of pulsing treatments on vase life and quality were investigated in F. refracta. The best pulsing treatment to extend vase life (by 24.7% compared with the control) and improve cut flower quality (flower diameter, percentage flowering (35.4%), fresh weight, water uptake, and carotenoid content) was dipping for 30 mins in silver thiosulfate (2 mM) followed by pulsing for 20 h in solution comprised of sucrose 10% + benzyladenine 10 ppm + 8-hydroxyquinoline sulfate 300 ppm. This treatment depressed ethylene production and respiration rate.
