Taking Fatong cuttings collected in spring and winter as materials, the effect of self-made polymer hormone rooting membrane made of hydrogels and ABT No.1 on the rooting survival rate of cuttings in the open field and ground covers were studied. The results showed that the survival rate of spring cuttings soaked with No.17 polymer hormone rooting membrane in the open field could reach 83.3%; there had no significant difference between spring cuttings soaked with No.17 polymer hormone rooting membrane and winter cuttings soaked with 100 mg/kg ABT No.1 for 4 h. This method could simplified some steps in storage and ground cover, and it could be extented with lower cost, simple operation and facilitation.
