Abstract
An experiment was conducted at the Horticulture Farm of Sher-e-Bangla
Agricultural University, Dhaka during the period from May to December 2011 to
find the influence of spacing and gibberellic acid on growth and flowering of
tuberose . The experiment consisted of two factors. Three levels of spacing viz.,
1
: 20 × 10 cm ; (
viz.,
0
: 0 ppm
2
: 20 × 15 cm and (iii)
1
: 200 ppm

: 20 × 20 cm and four levels of GA
: 250 ppm and
respectively . The experiment was conducted in a Randomized Complete Block
Design with three replications. The maximum number of spike
and maximum number of spike

: 300 ppm GA

Considering above findings the 20 cm × 20
cm spacing with 250 ppm GA

was suitable for tuberose cultivation
