Abstract :
Camellia (Camellia japonica L.) is slow growing and evergreen shrub that has planted for landscaping and beautiful cut flowers. Cutting is the easiest and cheapest method for camellia propagation but camellia cuttings is hardœrooting and needed to specialtreatments.Inthisexperiment,auxinusingtreatmentsarestudied.The experiment conducted in factorial experiment based on complete randomized block design with two factors (four IBA levels and four NAA levels) in three replication and studied rooting percent, root dry weight, root length, tallest root length and root numbers. Obtained results show in significant differents (P<0.01). Among treatments, 4000 mg.l-1IBA produced most root number and 4000mg.lIBA+2000mg.lNAA produdced tallest roots. Among IBA levels, 4000mg.lproduced most root percent, while 2000mg.lIBA +2000mg.l-1 NAA was most effective treatment.
