Abstract

Alstroemeria aurantifolia is one of the most popular flowers known for its beautiful flowers and high longevity. Alstroemeria is belonging to the Alstroemeriaceae family and is one of the 10 most popular ornamental plants in the world. This experiment was carried out in a completely randomized design with 5 replications on Alstroemeria cut flowers in the postharvest laboratory of Mohaghegh Ardebili University during 2018-2019. Research treatments consisted of herbal extracts of Lawsonia inermis, Salvia officinalis, Urtica and Thymus in concentrations of 100, 50, 25% and control. The results of mean comparison of data showed that on the fifth, seventh, ninth, eleventh and thirteenth days, the highest chlorophyll content was observed in leaf of plants treated with 100% Thymus, which was observed in control group in a statistical group. At the first and third day of treatment, the highest chlorophyll content was observed in the control. Lawsonia inermis and Salvia officinalis treatments had the lowest chlorophyll content. Absorption rate of alstroemeria was highest during the application of treatments and the lowest rate of absorption was due to Lawsonia inermis treatments
