Abstract

Marigold has special values in Nepal as elsewhere. Especially during light festival (Depawali) huge quantity of this flower is consumed for home decoration. Consumer’ prefers higher longevity, contrasting colors and variation in size whereas producers prefer higher yielding and types preferred by the consumers. Local varieties are monotonous, not compact and low yielding. Looking at the market demand, field trials were conducted to evaluate contrasting pot type marigold genotypes for vegetative growth, floral quality and yield attributes at three different locations (Bhaktapur, Kathmandu and Lalitpur district) of Nepal in 2019. These trials were designed in Randomized Complete Block (RCBD) with 11 pot type marigold genotypes (Sun Orange, Sun Gold, Sun Yellow, M-45 Orange, M-45 Gold, M-45 Yellow, SO-1 Orange, SO-1 Gold, SO-1 Yellow, K-Yellow and FO9 Orange) replicated three times. Genotypes M-45 Orange and FO9 Orange were taller in plant height and well spreading canopy type. Genotypes SO-1 Orange, SO-1 Yellow, SO-1 Gold and K-Yellow were dwarf type and had less spreading canopy.
