Abstract: An experiment was conducted to evaluate ten varieties of gerbera for quality of the flower under different growing structure. The experiment was laid out in Factorial randomized complete block design with 10 treatments and each treatment was replicated thrice. Cultivar Luxes had maximum stalk length (57.36 cm) under poly house; Diameter of the flower was more in the cultivar Bonnie (0.68 cm) under shade house condition. Cultivar Sciella recorded maximum flower diameters under both shade house (10.51 cm) and polyhouse (10.04 cm) condition. The disc diameter of flower was maximum in the cultivar Luxes (2.44 cm), Cultivar Carocci had maximum number of petals (72.33) under shade house environment. Rosella and Cassiana under shade house condition recorded higher ray florets length (5.18 cm and 5.13 cm, respectively) and Cv. Carocci has maximum florets width (1.49 cm) and highest vase life (13.67 days) under shade house condition.
