Flowering responses, in terms of days to flowering and number of nodes below the flower, were studied in 60 cultivars or breeding selections by planting monthly at Taichung District Agricultural Improvement Station and Chung-Yang farm in autumn and winter, respectively. Fifty-two out of 60 cultivars or selections flowered when planted monthly from August 1999 to February 2000. Six groups can be classified according to their seasonal changes of days to flowering. For the groups I and II consisting 18 cultivars or selections, the flowering time delayed for 3 weeks or more when planted in December and January as compared to those planted in autumn. For the groups III and VI containing 7 cvs or selections, the flowering time was shorter when planted in autumn but longer in winter and spring. The 17 cultivars or selections were less cool-sensitive in the group IV and 10 cvs. were cool-insensitive in the group V selected. The insensitive cvs or selections in low-temperature can be used as the parents in breeding program for winter cultivation in Taiwan.
