| Abstract;Expanded, young leaf blades of Begonia Tuberhybrida Group 'Clips Yellow' were cut into four pieces radially from the junction with the petiole; each piece was inserted in various media in nursery trays. The surviving percentage of the leaf pieces, grown in rockwool beds, was higher than in other media; about half of them formed adventitious buds. When the leaf piece was cut into the proximal and distal halves, several adventitious buds were formed on the former, but only a few on the latter. Many leaf pieces, inserted in April, May, and October formed adventitious buds, but only a few leaf pieces inserted in July, did. The optimum temperature for adventitious bud formation was around 15-20.DEG.C.. The results suggest that the adventitious bud formation is affected by temperature rather than day length.
