The study "Varietal Response of Rose Cuttings to Rooting Hormone" was conducted from June 1978 to August 1978 at the Floriculture section of the Plant Science project of the Don Severino Agricultural College, Indang, Cavite. The purpose was to determine which of the four varieties of rose cuttings respond to rooting if treated with 150 ppm of Indolebutyric acid (IBA). The experiment was conducted in a prepared mistbed. The cuttings of the different varieties of rose namely: Antigone, Proudland, Mr. Lincoln, and Grand Mogul were secured from the Ornamental Crop Division, Department of Horticulture, University of the Philippines at Los Gallos, College, Laguna. Highly significant result was obtained in terms of the number of days from planting to rooting. Grand Mogul was found best with a mean number of 11.75 days. It rooted much earlier as compared to other varieties. Antigone was observed to have rooted last with a mean number of 19.75 days. With regard to root length, highly significant result was also obtained from this experiment. Treatment 4 (Grand Mogul) gave the longest root with a mean length of 5.10 cms. With respect to percentage of survival, Grand Mogul gave the highest and Antigone had the lowest survival of cuttings.
