Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during summer season of 2018 in Departmental Research Field of Department of Horticulture, SHUATS, Prayagraj on Tuberose (Polianthes tuberosa.). The experiment was conducted in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with eighteen Varieties replicated thrice. The experiment consisted of varieties such as Prajwal, Kalyan Single, Hyderabad Single, Arka Nirantra, Gktc 4, Sikkim Selection, Calcutta Double, Sringar, Pearl Double, Phule Rajani, Vaibhav, Mexican Single, Hyderabad Double, Single, Suvasini, STR-505, Double, Swarna Rekha.
