Abstract:
An experiment was conducted to find out the variability among ten varieties of gladiolus for cultivation at Rajasthan College of Agriculture Udaipur. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with three replications. There were significant difference among the varieties with respect to vegetative, floral and yield characters. Maximum plant height (60.22 cm) was recorded in Candiman Rose. Priscilla produced maximum number of leaves per plant (11.39). Psittacinous Hybrid recorded with earliest sprouting (12.61 days), earliest flowering (70.27 days), minimum days to 50% flowering and maximum number of spikes per plant (1.88). Candiman Rose was recorded the maximum spike length (83.28 cm), number of florets per spike (14.78), number of corms per plant (2.94) and number of cormels per plants (32.50).
