potted Ornithogalum , more information on preplant environmental conditions and greenhouse protocols is needed. Determination of proper temperature sequences for the entirety of bulb production and utilization is an important aspect of flower bulb
plants into flower during periods of high demand (e.g., holidays) requires knowledge of environmental characteristics that regulate flowering. Temperature has been reported to control flowering in several orchid genera such as Dendrobium ( Rotor, 1952
plantable, compostable, or recyclable containers as an alternative way to improve the sustainability of current production systems ( Nambuthiri et al., 2015 ). Container materials and colors can affect plant growth by modifying substrate temperature and the
ornamental plant production. Although orchid flowering is generally not a well-understood phenomenon, significant progress has been made in understanding the role of environmental factors, particularly for Phalaenopsis . Temperatures below 26 °C are required
