Performance of Different Common Hyacinth (Hyacinthus orientalis) to Qualitative and Quantitative Traits of Growth and Propagation

Evaluation of Hyacinth cultivars including Jan Bose, Annabella ,Aqua, Blue jacket ,Purple sensation, Purple star, Yellow stone, Gipsy queen, Aladdin, Pink pearl genotypes was carried out during year 2018 at Division Of Floriculture and Landscape Architecture SKUAST- K Shalimar with an objective to assess the performance of vegetative traits and propagation ratio. Data depicts cultivar yellow stone with maximum plant height at maturity (17.97cm), Leaf length (12.98cm), Leaf width (3.64cm), Number of leaves per plant 24.58 and minimum values for Plant height at maturity (15.02cm), Leaf length (11.06cm), Leaf width (1.93cm), Number of leaves per plant 17.58 resulted with cultivar Pink pearl. Minimum to maximum values for bulb weight (28.87 to 34.53g), bulb Size (8.18 to 10.03cm), number of offsets per bulb ( 2.00 to 3.58) and weight of offsets(11.09 to 16.94g) were observed with cultivar pink pearl and yellow stone respectively. Most of the variation for growth and propagation were significant among the cultivars.
