A Study on the Evaluation of Commercial Narcissus Varieties as Potted Ornamental Plants

Araştırma, Ege Üniversitesi Bayındır Meslek Yüksekokulu’nda sera koşullarında saksıda yetiştirilen farklı nergis çeşitlerinin floristik özelliklerini incelemek amacıyla Aralık 2014 – Haziran 2015 tarihleri arasında bir vejetayson döneminde yürütülmüştür. Araştırmada 22 farklı nergis çeşidi (Professor Einstein, Tête-à-Tête, Carlton, Precocious, Furbelow, IceFollies, Strong Gold, Dellan, Carbineer, Tamsyn, Actaea, Golden Harvest, Cheerfulness, SempreAvanti, ScarlettO’Hara, Monal, Tahiti, Fortissimo, Pink Silk, White Lion, Fortune, Salome) incelenmiştir. Çeşitlere ait ilk çiçeklenme başlangıcı, çiçekte kalma süresi, bitki boyu, sap uzunluğu, sap kalınlığı, çiçek çapı ve bir saptaki çiçek sayısı özellikleri değerlendirilmiştir. Elde edilen verilere göre; çiçeklenme başlangıç süreleri soğanların dikimden 48 - 79 gün sonrası belirlenmiştir. Çiçekte kalma süreleri 20 - 44 gün, bitki boyları 24,0 - 64,6 cm, sap uzunlukları 17,75 - 54,28 cm, çiçek çapları 4,2 - 12,1 cm, sap kalınlıkları 0,7 - 1,35 cm ve saptaki çiçek adedi 1 - 3 adet olarak belirlenmiştir. Denemede kullanılan tüm çeşitler gelişme hızı, renk, form, genel görünüm gibi birçok özellik açısından farklılık göstermiştir. Araştırmada kullanılan tüm çeşitlerin saksılı süs bitkisi olarak değerlendirilmesinin mümkün olacağı sonucuna varılmıştır.

Ticari Nergis Çeşitlerinin Saksılı Süs Bitkisi Olarak Değerlendirilmesi Üzerine Bir Araştırma

The research was carried out over a vegetation period between December 2014 and June 2015 at Ege University, Bayindir Vocational School to investigate the floristic properties of different cool-climate narcissus varieties grown in pots under greenhouse conditions. Twenty-two different Narcissus cultivars (Professor Einstein, Tête-à-Tête, Carlton, Precocious, Furbelow, Ice Follies, Strong Gold, Dellan, Carbineer, Tamsyn, Actaea, Golden Harvest, Cheerfulness, Sempre Avanti, Scarlett O’Hara, Monal, Fortissimo, Pink Silk, White Lion, Fortune, Salome) were examined in terms of their floral quality in Mediterranean ecological conditions. For this purpose, different Narcissus cultivars were scrutinized through a set of visual criteria for their first flowering time, flowering duration, flower length, stem height and width together with the amount and diameter of their flowers. As a result, in accordance with each cultivar, rather different outcomes were demonstrated; the flowering times were within 48 and 79 days, the flower longevity was between 20 and 44 days. In addition, plant length 24.0 - 64.6 cm, stem lengths varied between 17.75 cm and 54.28 cm, stem diameters were within 0.70 cm and 1.35 cm. The largest flower diameter was measured at 12.1 cm and the highest number of florets counted was 3. All varieties used in the experiment were different from each other in terms of development speed, color, form and general appearance. It was concluded that all varieties used in the research could be evaluated as a potted ornamental plant.
