Abstract

Seventeen chrysanthemum genotypes were evaluated for two years (2000 and 2001) to study their performance in the farmer's field. Among the different accessions, Harvest Home, Mutant No.9, Selection-5, Karnool, Saraval and Chandrika were superior for their flower yield as compared to other genotypes. These cultivars had fairly good vegetative growth in terms of plant spread, number of branches, leaf area etc.
