To evaluation of effect of NAA on vase life andpostharvest characters of cut Alstroemeria hybrida, a completely randomized design experiment with 3 level of NAA (0,10 and 20 mg L-1) and 3 replications was carried out. Analysis of variance showed that effectof NAA on vase life, chlorophyll b content and loss of °brix was significant (p≤0.05).Results showed that 10mg L-1 NAA was the best treatment for vase life (9.85 days)and lossof°brix (0.73%). Also 20 mg l-1 NAA showed highest chlorophyll b content with 8.30.
