Abstract

Taique (Desfontainia spinosa) and tepa (Laureliopsis philippiana) are both highly ornamental native species from Chile. In order to investigate the capacity of vegetative propagation of these species, different concentrations of indolbuturic acid (IBA) with different types of cuttings were tested. The study was carried out inside a greenhouse with intermittent misting system. Cuttings were placed on a hot propagation bed at a temperature of 22
