`Rose Grenadine' and `Buckaroo' garden chrysanthemums [Dendranthema ×grandiflorum (Ramat.) Kitamura] were produced in 15-cm pots in the greenhouse and fertilized with either 550 or 1000 ml of a 15 mol·m-3 N solution at each irrigation. The nutrient solution applied to half the pots contained a wetting agent (WA), and the remaining pots received no WA. Core samples were removed at 15-cm increments to a depth of 90 cm from the soil beneath the pots. The average leaching fraction (LF) from pots receiving a WA was 0.29 but was 0.26 from pots receiving no WA. However, WA did not affect the leachate NO3-N concentration or the total NO3-N deposited on the soil beneath; these were most influenced by LF. After week 2, NO3-N concentration in the upper 15 cm soil layer was 3.4 times higher with a high LF than with a low LF (30 and 8.8 g·m-3 respectively). At week 10, the NO3-N concentration in the 30 to 45 cm soil layer averaged 71.9 g·m-3 under the high LF and 35.5 g·m-3 under the low LF. Total N and NO3-N in the potting medium was higher in the low LF pots than the high LF pots, while NO3-N was higher in the medium of pots irrigated without WA than with WA. Final plant shoot mass was higher in pots irrigated to a high LF or without WA than in pots irrigated to a low LF or with WA.
genera and species were identified in all of the sampled gardens, the most abundant of which were rose [ Rosa sp. (58.3%)], olive [ Olea europaea (45.6%)], japanese spindle [ Euonymus japonicus (44.0%)], lemon [ Citrus limon (43.2%)], and canary
, and R. sempervirens are most frequent ( Martincic et al., 1999 ). Numerous rose cultivars are widely planted in gardens and parks for their aesthetic value and native plants are harvested for their fruit and flowers. Medicinal benefits of the genus
have interesting applications in ornamental shrubs such as roses due to their high market value, wide distribution, and relative phytosanitarian certification ( Krczal, 1998 ). Some potential applications of RFID techniques could include procedures for

other species in both genera have been reported to be sensitive to desiccation during lifting, storage, and transplanting ( Bates and Niemiera, 1994 ; Murakami et al., 1990 ). Garden roses were also reported to be more prone to desiccation compared with
