Abstract:

The evaluation trial on twenty exotic rose cultivars was made in D. I. Khan to study their performance and adaptability to select the best ones for this area, Shocking Blue, Doris Tysterman. Day Dream, Red Sex, Chalas Perfume, Carebia, and Alexendra were some most promising cvs. and performed well. Maximum days (24) were taken by "Smooky", while minimum days (18) were recorded in "Shocking Blue" to sprouting. The cv. Doris Tysterman was the tallest (107.33 cm) one. Maximum flowers/month (10) were bloomed by "Day Dream". The cultivar Smooky faded after (7) days and was also dense with 7 branches/plant. Maximum flower size (11.73 cm) was recorded in "Chalas Perfume". Big purple produced greater number of petals (58) while minimum number of petals (20) were counted in "Cocktail". Among all cultivars "Chalas Perfume" was very fragrant.
