Hibiscus rosa†sinensis †sinensis †sinensis â€1) in sand and coco peat mediawere used for evaluation of plant rooting in an experiment with completelyrandomized design in three replications. The cuttings were selected whenthey had 6 â€8 buds and their heights were 12â€10 cm. After sterilization andhormonal treatment, cuttings were planted in 3 cm depth of media. In thisstudy, factors such as callus time, root initiation, number of buds, percentageof rooting, number of roots and root length were determined. Theresults showed that with increase in levels of rooting hormones, callusinduction time and time of root beginning was reduced. On the other hand,percentage of green cuttings without root, percentage of rooting and numberof root in cuttings and length of roots produced in each cutting was increased.According to the measured factors, treatment of 2000 mg l â€1 wasbetter treatment in increasing percentage of rooting and other affecting factorson the quality of cuttings in both medium.‘yellow double hybrid’ is a hard rooting plant. Fourlevels of IBA (0, 1000, 2000 and 4000 mg l
