The quality of flowering potted plants is defined by the interaction of many factors – noticeable and hides, qualitative and quantitative – that are involved in the visual appearance and the ability to preserve the ornamental characteristics. The most important parameter of quality for the flowering potted plants is obviously the flower. The natural senescence of flower is characterized by cascade events that are genetically regulated (Jones and Woodson, 1997).
