Thirty five genotypes of dahlia (Dahlia variabilis L.) were studied for fifteen different growth, flowering, quality and yield traits for the association of different characters with flower yield per plant (g). The results indicated a significant and desirable correlation between flower yield per plant with the characters like number of secondary branches per plant, number of leaves, leaf area, duration of the crop, flower diameter, number of petals per flower, stalk length, individual flower weight, number of flowers per plant, number of tubers per plant at genotypic and phenotypic level respectively.. This provides a knowledge regarding association of various characters among themselves and to estimate the inherent association between genes.
