The effects of number of branches on quality and yield of secondary cut flower of Dendranthema grandiflorum were investigated. Plant height reached 80 cm in plants with 4 branches, but the height rapidly reduced as number of branches increased. Less plants were harvested with increasing number of branches. From plants with one or two branches, less cut flowers were harvested while showing high market quality. In contrast, plants with 5 or 6 branches produced more flowers but with lower quality. Therefore, optimal number of branches for growth and flower quality was found to be 3 to 4.
