Abstract: A field trial was conducted to study the influence of spacing and nitrogen on bulb formation of Asiatic lily cv. Tressor. The experiment comprises of three spacing viz. 15 cm x 15 cm, 25 cm x 15 cm and 30 cm x 15 cm in combination with the three levels of nitrogen viz. 100 kg ha^-1, 150 kg ha^-1 and 200 kg ha^-1 were tested in Factorial Randomized Block Design. Data revealed that plant spacing of 30 cm x 15 cm and 200 kg ha^-1 nitrogen level showed resulting in a significant effect on number of bulbs per plant, number of bulblets per plant, bulb diameter, bulb weight, bulb yield per plant and bulb yield per plot.
