  1. Bulb Clove Arrangement (BULB CLOVE ARRANGEMENT) Arrangement of cloves in bulb
  2. Bulb Clove Number (BULB CLOVER NUMBER) Average number of cloves per bulb from 5 bulbs
  3. Bulb Clove Skin Color (BULB CLOVER SKIN COLOR) Skin color of cloves from mature bulbs
  4. Bulb Diameter (BULB DIAMETER) The average diameter (cm) of 5-10 mature bulbs.
  5. Bulb Height (BULB HEIGHT) The average height (cm) of 5-10 mature bulbs.
  6. Bulb Shape (BULB SHAPE) Description of the mature bulb shape. Refer to Figure 1.
  7. Bulb Skin Color (BULB SKIN COLOR) Skin color of mature bulbs.

  13. Flower Color (FLOWER COLOR) Color of fully open flowers. In mixed colors, the first one indicated is dominat, e.g. LA/WH means lavender is the dominant color.
  14. Flowering Ability (FLOWERING ABILITY) Simple indication if the accession initiates flowers. Does not imply that the plants produce seed.
  15. Leaf Erectness (LEAD ERECTNESS) Estimate of general leaf erectness at time when scape fully expanded or all leaves have emerged.
  16. Leaf Relative Area (LEAF AREA) Average total leaf area of the accession as compared to the rest of the accessions in the collection. The source of the seed for accessions screened for this descriptor should be the same.
  17. Leaf Color (LEAF COLOR) Color of leaves at time when scape fully expanded or all leaves have emerged.
  18. Leaf Length (LEAF LENGTH) Average leaf length (cm) of 5-10 plants at time when scape fully expanded or all leaves have emerged.
  19. Leaf Number (LEAF NUMBER) Number of green leaves at days after planting specified
  20. Leaf Width (LEAF WIDTH) Average leaf width (mm) of 5-10 plants at time when scape fully expanded or all leaves have emerged.
  21. Leaf Plant Canopy Height (PLANT CANOPY HEIGHT) Average distance (cm) from the soil to the top of the plant canopy for the accession.
  22. Scape Development (SCAPE DEVELOPMENT) Development of the scape at time of bulb maturity.
  23. Scape Diameter (SCAPE DIAMETER) Average diameter (mm) of the scape of 5-10 plants at mid-scape after the scape has fully expanded.
  24. Scape Length (SCAPE LENGTH) Average length (cm) from the last leaf to bottom of umbel of 5-10 plants after scape has fully expanded.
  25. Bulbil production (TOPSET) Indication if the accession produces topsets (bulbils), regardless of seed producing ability.
