Abstract
Severity of lower foliage senescence of Easter lilies (Lilium longiflorum Thunb.) was increased in response to application of ancymidol (A-Rest) in combination with low phosphorus nutrition. Leaf senescence in lilies could be related to a reduced foliar content of phosphorus and total chlorophyll. Plant growth was significantly retarded by high rates of A-Rest. Maintaining high phosphorus nutrition lessened the severity of leaf senescence but partially overcame the effect of A-Rest on growth.
