Abstract

An experiment was carried out in the experimental field of Department of Floriculture and Landscape Architecture, KRC College of horticulture, Arabhavi, to know the performance of daisy genotypes for growth, flowering, yield and quality parameters. Among the genotypes purple long petal produces vigorous growth and maximum suckers. Whereas, early flowering were recorded in Dwarf Pink. The genotype White Tall produced maximum spike yield, followed by Purple Long Petal, Purple Multipetal, Dark Purpleand White Daisy. The overall acceptance was excellent ingenotype Star White Daisy, followed by Dark Purple, Purple Long Petal and Dwarf Pink.
