All 20 possible combinations of 4 plants (acalypha, croton, dracaena, hibiscus) and 5 chemical treatments (water, IBA @ 50 ppm, IBA @ 100 ppm, NAA @ 50 ppm, NAA @ 100 ppm). It is concluded that most suitable chemical treatment for ornamental stem cuttings was T₂ (IBA 100 ppm), suitable ornamental stem cutting was P₂ (croton) and interaction of ornamental stem cutting and chemical treatment was P₂T₂ (croton + IBA 100 ppm) among all chemical treatment combination.
