The investigations, “Vase life of hydrangea cut flowers as function of N and K as pre-harvest application” was carried out at Dr. Y. S. P. UHF, Nauni, Solan (H.P) in a RBD- factorial, with five doses of nitrogen and four doses of potassium. The treatment combinations of these different doses of N and K were replicated three times. Result from this experiment revealed that pre-harvest application of 40 g N/m2 recorded maximum vase life of 21.50 days. With respect to effect of potassium, the maximum vase life of 19.33 days was recorded with the pre-harvest application of K @ 50 g /m2. In general vase life of hydrangea macrophylla flower was recorded to be maximum, when crop was fertilized with pre-harvest combined application of N @ 40 g /m2, P @ 30 g /m2 and K @ 50 g /m2.
