Abstract: Effective rooting and survival of cuttings has become more important owing to increased global wood demands and climate change. This study assesses the survival of ten (10) clones each of Eucalyptus grandis x Eucalyptus urophylla (E. grandis x E. urophylla) and Eucalyptus pellita (E. pellita) clonal cuttings when treated with different Indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) auxin concentrations of 0 ppm (control), 2000 ppm, 3000 ppm and 4000 ppm respectively. Overall, the mean survival of cuttings with respect to both species (10 clones each) was low (i.e
