The present experiment entitled “Effect of potting media on growth and flower yield of rose (
Rosa hybrida L.) cv. Top Secret under protected condition.” was carried out at Hi-Tech Horticulture Park, Department of Horticulture, Junagadh Agricultural University, Junagadh (Gujarat) during 2016-17. The results of the study indicated that growth parameters

2), number of leaf per stalk (20.33) and stalk length (36.23 cm) were significantly maximum obtained in T
4 treatment which followed by treatment T
7. Whereas, flowering parameter
viz., number of days to bud initiation (13.23 days) were recorded significantly minimum with the T
4 treatment followed by treatment T
7. Similarly, the significantly maximum flower diameter (8.23 cm), number of petals per flower (27.65) and number of flowers per plant (19.48) and were recorded in T
