Sažetak
The cut flowers of rose cultivars (Rosa hybrida cultivars Spinx, Bianca and First Red) and carnations (Dianthus caryophyllus cultivars Ivonne, White Liberty and Indios) were kept in a growing chamber at 20 and 30 degrees C, respectively. The average flower diameter was measured daily in 5 replicates of each cultivar. The amount of transpired water was measured at the end of the experiment. There were ignificant differences in flower opening rate among the tested cultivars, influenced by the air temperature. At 30 degrees C, both roses and carnations lasted 5 days. However, at 20 degrees C, vase life was 10 days for roses and 8 days for carnations. The cultivars with shorter vase life transpired more water than those with longer vase life..
