저장조건에 따른 프리지어 ‘Shiny Gold’의 절화수명과 품질

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of storage method, period, and temperature for vase life and quality of cut freesia ‘Shiny Gold’ bred in Korea. Freesias were stored in wet or dry condition for 4, 8, or 12 days at 1, 3, or 5℃. Wet storage extended the vase life of cut freesia ‘Shiny Gold’ and increased percent flowering by about 10% compared to dry storage. The vase life and quality of cut freesia ‘Shiny Gold’ stored at 1℃ was better than 3℃ and 5℃. The vase life of cut freesia ‘Shiny Gold’ stored for 4 days was more increased about 1~2 days than 12 days. And cut freesia ‘Shiny Gold’ was difficult to store for more than 8 days. Therefore, cut freesia ‘Shiny Gold’ was considered proper wet storage for 4 days at 1℃.
