A plant growth regulating composition comprises a triazole derivative having the general formula (I) and a carrier or diluent, <CHEM> wherein R<1> is an alkyl group containing from 1 to 4 carbon atoms; R<2> and R<3>, which may be the same or different, are each separately an alkyl group containing from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, or R<2>and R<3>, together with the carbon atom joining them, form a cycloalkyl group containing from 3 to 6 carbon atoms; R<4> and R<5>, which may be the same or different, each represent hydrogen or an alkyl group containing from 1 to 4 carbon atoms; and A represents an optionally substituted phenyl group; and acid addition salts, ethers, esters and metal complexes thereof. Certain compounds of formula (I) are novel. |
