Effects of Uniconazole - P and Paclobutrazol foliar application on the growth and flowering of Duranta repens L. 'Takaraduka' were investigated. Uniconazorle - P was more effective than Paclobutrazol for inhibition of stalk elongation. Uniconazole-P at 12.5 mg.liter(-1) Y as suitable for cultures in 9 to 12 cm pots. As for Paclobutrazol, an effect was hardly seen at even 300 mg.liter(-1). To increase the number of flower- bearing branches, the timing of Uniconazole- P application was also examined. The most effective treatment was duplicated application 10- 14 days after pinching and repeated 2 weeks after the first application. Uniconazole-P decreased the node number necessary for flower bud differentiation of 'Takaraduka' to 4-5.
