Measurements let in plant high , plant width , routine of subdivision , stem distance , number of usable stem per plant , number of flush per plant , flower size , peak steadiness , and vase living . Disease , dirt ball , heat , and drouth permissiveness are also measured . " The result from the trial will be available in March .
