In years 2008-2010, a possibility of propagation of cornelian cherry (Cornus mas L.), honeysuckle (Lonicera kamtschatica (Sevast) Pojark) and sea-buckthorn (Hyppophae rhamnoides L.) by cuttings was investigated in RBIP Holovousy. Rooting of softwood cuttings of cornelian cherry ranged from 32 % to 95 %. The middle of June was a suitable period for taking of cuttings. Cultivars of honeysuckle were best propagated in the second and third decade of May and the rate of rooting ranged from 30 % to 85 %. The softwood cuttings rooted under mist on a greenhouse bench with bottom heat. It is recommended to propagate sea-buckthorn by hardwood cuttings using local heating of bases. Timing of collection of cuttings is from January to the beginning of March. The rooting success of sea-buckthorn cultivars ranged from 17 % to 93 %. Male cultivar Polmix showed poor propagation ability by hardwood cuttings (rooting rate 4 %-8 %). We recommend treating of both softwood and hardwood cutting with growth regulator (2500 ppm IBA).
