The purpose of the study was to determine which of the different ages of cuttings would be best for the propagation of Adelfa. Cuttings were secured from healthy matured mother plant. Polyethylene bags were provided with holes for drainage and soil for the reception of cuttings. Randomized complete block design was used in the experiment with three treatments and three replications. Rapid loss of moisture w as observed especially on the softwood cuttings. It was due to the continuous evaporation of moisture but insufficient absorption of the plant, since the roots were not yet formed. The study revealed that Treatment 2 (semi-hardwood) cutting produced the highest number of leaves and roots. It was also observed that Treatment 2 (semi-hardwood cutting) had the most number of living cuttings with a mean of 48.66,
