In India, where floriculture is a vital part of our cultural and heritage, flower crops have become a significant source of income. To enhance the productivity, quality, and export potential of various floricultural crops, concerted efforts are being made across the country. As trends change and there is a constant demand for innovative products, it is crucial to stay informed about new potential crops with novel varieties and improved production methods. The growing global interest in floriculture has also led to agricultural universities and colleges incorporating it into their curriculum.
