Scales taken from bulb of Georgia lily(Lilium longiflorum Thunb.) were treated with hot water (30˚-55℃) to investigate bulblet yield in 80 days and growth of scaly leaf emergence and fleshness and root length of bulblet for 80 days after scaling. The results obtained are as follows;
1. The hot water treatment to scale was effective on accelerating the scaly leaf emergence.
2. Dead scale was found more in the plot treated with hot water of 45℃ or higher.
3. Bulblet fleshness was pormoted considerably by hot water treatment, ranging from 35˚ to 40℃.
4. Bulblet fleshness had completed in about 60 days after scaling.
5. The longer root was found in the plot which scaly leaf grew vigorously.
