Stable S-(+)-abscisic acid (S-ABA) non-aqueous liquid solutions are generally achieved without the use of an effective amount of an antioxidant and/or an ultraviolet absorber to S-(+)-abscisic acid. In a preferred embodiment, the stable S-(+)-abscisic acid (S-ABA) nonaqueous liquid solutions includes at least one organic solvent, such as at least one polyethylene glycol, at least one glycol, and/or at least one lactamide and/or at least one pentanoate.
