From DDO photometry combined with U,B,V photometry of red stars in the open clusters NGC 2232, NGC 2287, and NGC 2451, the mean color excess E(B-V), the distance modulus, and the mean metal abundance [Fe/H] were derived for the clusters. The physical parameters, surface gravity, effective temperature, and spectral type were also obtained for the red stars. Estimation of age yielded 1.1×108yr for NGC 2287, and for NGC 2451, 4.8×108yr. The cluster NGC 2232 should be older than 109yr.
