An experiment was carried out during kharif season from June, 2011 to August, 2011 (three cropping season), to improve the plant stature, vegetative growth and yield of daisy (Aster amellus L.) cv. Dwarf Pink. As the cultivar basically, with dwarf plant stature and attractive pink coloured flowers having good demand for best quality spikes. Among the various growth promoters and their combinations tried, gibberellic acid (150 ppm) and brassinosteroid (0.5 ppm) sprayed plants produced significantly maximum vegetative growth like higher plant height, more number of suckers per plant, number of leaves per plant, wider plant spread, longest internode and profuse leaf area. The maximum yield of spikes per plant and per meter square and longest vase life was also found better in same treatment. Finally it canbe concluded that plants sprayed with combination of gibberellic acid (150 ppm) and BR (0.5 ppm) helpful for improving growth and quality of Daisy (Aster amellus L.) cv. Dwarf Pink.
