Shrinking Easter lilies via chemical retardant tested by Cornell

Scientists led by Prof. John G. Seeley at Cornell report the chemical ancymidol reduces lily height by up to 50 percent with a single application while preserving leaves flowers and bloom timing. Tall lilies fetch 24 to 34 inches but treated plants reach 18 to 20 inches for decorative use. Experimental lilies named Ace showed 4 to 5 inch height reductions with controlled dilution to avoid overuse. The study notes careful dosing matters for internode shortening and a balanced palm tree effect.
