Investigation was carried out to study the influence of different types and methods of stem cuttings on the success of propagation for Cape Jasmine (Gardenia florida Linn.). Twelve cutting treatments were considered for mature and soft wood (i.e. old and new shoots) of Cape Jasmine. It was observed that better rooting performance occurred from cuttings of mature wood compared to soft wood. In response to various cutting treatments, a higher survival rate was achieved from cuttings having one node. Planting at an angle position resulted in higher survival of cuttings compared to planting straight. A slanting base cut increase over the round base cut with respect to survival and rooting response. A favorable effect was noticed when cutting treatments with a slanting base cut at angle planting was considered.
