Effect of the mode of storage of frozen lily bulbs (Lilium sp.) on the quality of the bulbs and flowering plants
Summary. The aim of the research was to assess the effect of the mode of storage of frozen bulbs of the oriental trumpet lily ‘Conca d’Or’ and the Asiatic lily ‘Romano’ on the quality of the bulbs and the plants that developed from them. Keeping the bulbs in perforated plastic bags turned out to have reduced water evaporation and slightly lowered their weight. The mode of storage had no effect on the earliness of flowering of the two cultivars: whatever the mode, ‘Romano’ plants bloomed in the 3rd decade of June and ‘Conca d’Or’ in the 1st and 2nd decades of July. The plants that developed from the frozen bulbs of the cultivar ‘Conca d’Or’ kept in plastic bags were taller, bloomed more abundantly, and had larger flowers. In the cultivar ‘Romano’ the mode of storage had no effect on the quality of plants.
Key words: lily, storage of bulbs, plant growth
