| Abstract: | Removal of the cut rose flower of ‘Forever Yours’ decreased water uptake by 20.4%, leaf removal 78.5%, and both flower and leaf removal 95.2%. Cut carnation ‘White Sim’ water uptake declined 27.1, 37,3 and 59.6% after flower, leaf, or both were removed, respectively. A high rate of water uptake (40.4%) continued after both carnation flower and leaf removal. |
