Isolated leaves from seven different plants were treated with hormones in order to study their rooting response. Ipomæa batatas leaves were treated with I.A.A., I.B.A. and N.A.A. and it was found that 2·5 p.p.m. I.B.A. is the best concentration for rooting. Pogostemon leaves showed best rooting with 2·5 p.p.m. I.B.A., Amaranthus with 5 p.p.m., Helianthus, Chenopodium and Boerhaavia with 10 p.p.m. and Cephalandra with 20 p.p.m. I.B.A. Rooting response of various experimental leaves is different to different concentrations of the hormones. It is suggested that the different rooting response of the materials to the different hormones lies on the structure of the cell wall and the reactive capacity of the hormones.
