TAILIEUCHUNG - Performance of Asiatic and Oriental lilium hybrids under lower altitudes of Nagaland

An experiment was conducted during 2011-12 to evaluate the lilium hybrids at ICAR Research Complex for NEH Region, Nagaland Centre, Nagaland. Three Asiatic lilium hybrids viz., Sulpice, Brunello, Barasso and three Oriental hybrids viz., Acapulco, Lamacha and Carmina were evaluated for their growth and yield characters. The results revealed that there was significant difference in growth, floral and flower quality characters. The data revealed that Barasso recorded maximum Plant height (), stem diameter (), whereas Brunello recorded maximum numbers of leaves () and took minimum days for bud burst ( days), and bud emergence ( days). Acapulco recorded maximum bud length ( cm) and took minimum days for flowering ( days). Lamacha recorded maximum bud diameter ( cm) and diameter of flower ( cm) and Carmina recorded maximum number of buds (). Sulpice took less numbers of days to come to full bloom ( days). Based on the study, the hybrids viz., Brunello, Barasso, and Lamacha were more suitable for lower altitudes of Nagaland in terms of growth, floral and flower quality traits. | Performance of Asiatic and Oriental lilium hybrids under lower altitudes of Nagaland
