The study of different cytokinin treatments and rootstocks on budding in greenhouse cultivars of rose (Rosa hybrida L.) was conducted at Research farm of department of Floriculture and Landscaping, Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana (Punjab) during (2016-17). Three rootstocks (R. indica, R. multiflora and R. bourboniana) and scion of cv. First Red were taken for the experiment and treated with different cytokinin (BAP) concentrations viz., 5 mg L-1, 10 mg L-1, 15 mg L-1, 20 mg L-1 and control. The maximum sprouting (91.66 %), survival (86.67 %), rooting (95.00 %), plant height (23.01 cm), shoot length (15.01 cm), number of branches (3.53), leaves (9.95) and flowers (2.21) per plant were significantly differed with rootstocks during both the year of experimentation. However, days to flower, bud emergence and full bloom were non-significant with cytokinin treatments in all the rootstocks. The BAP 20 mg L-1 and rootstock R. indica found best for all the parameters among all cytokinin treatments and rootstocks.
