Abstract: AMERNA,MARITA V., Don Severino Agricultural College, Indang, Cavite, April 1991. "Response of Gladiola Intercropped with African Daisy to Differ-ent Levels of Phosphorus Fertilizer (0-20-0). Prof. Celso S. Crucido, Adviser. The study was conducted in Barangay Biga, Silang, Cavite from October 1990 to January 1991. The study aimed to determine the effect of different levels of phosphorus fertilizer on the growth and flower production of gladiola intercropped with African Uisy. An area of 245 square meters was divided into four blocks and each block was further sub-divided into five equal parts to represent the treatments. The treatments used were as follows: T1 (control), T2 (150 kilograms per hectare of phosphorus), T3 (300 kilograms of phosphorus per hectare), T4 (450 kilograms of phosphorus per hectare) and T5 (600 kilograms of phosphorus per hectare). Results of the study showed that application of 450 and 600 kilograms per hectare of phosphorus fertilizer to gladiola intercropped with african daisy differed significantly from other treatments in terms of number of florets per spike and length0 f spike per plant of gladiola. On the other hand, application of different levels of phosphorus fertilizer from different treatments for african daisy gave insignificant results in all observations made. The results may be due to improper cultivation which resulted to soil compaction and poor nutritional status of the soil. Also, the root systems of individual plants were not extensive through-out the soil and there was low efficiency of nitrogen recovery. This was attributed to the denseness of the stock plant.
