Citrus (Citrus spp.) is commercial propagated through vegetative propagation. Stem cutting is the most important method of vegetative propagation of the world, excluding India. The cuttings treated with high concentration of IBA, performed the best in rooting and survival percentage, whereas, the mist house growing condition was found effective in increasing the success rate of the cuttings. Semi-hardwood cuttings gave the best result in terms of rooting and survival performance. In case of growing condition, the stem cuttings can give good rooting and survival, when cuttings are taken in July planting time.
