The result as follows: (1) The carnation cut flowers of tested with SA of different density, fresh weight presented drop after rising tendency. And all in reach biggest fresh heavy day number, fresh heavy increasing and the postponing fresh heavy reduction, the effect of 80 mg·L-1 SA was the most obviously. (2) The SA fresh-keeping liquid of five kinds of different density could improve the moisture condition in carnation cut flowers body, increase cut flower insure water ability.
