A commercial inoculum of  Glomus intraradices  Schenk and Smith, a vesicular–arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus, has been used with the objective of studying its effects on rooting and on subsequent growth of two woody ornamental plants ( Juniperus Sabina  `Blue Danube' and  Cornus sericea  `Coloradensis'). This inoculum, called  Mycorise™ , is produced by Premier Peat Co. (Rivière-du-Loup, Québec, Canada) and it contains one propagule/g of  Glomus intraradices . The cuttings's rooting media was mixed in order to contain 0%, 10%, 20%, 40%, or 80% of inoculum. Hardwood cuttings have been inserted in 65-ml cells and put under a mist until good rooting. For both species used, presence of inoculum in rooting media has not given significant effects during the rooting stage of cuttings, but has given some during the following stage of growth in 6-L containers. The growth of young mycorrhized plants of  Juniperus  was up to 50% greater than the control after the first season of growth. The young plants of  Cornus  have only showed a tendency to have a higher growth. Moreover, several mineral elements (N, P, Ca, Mn, Zn) were present at higher concentrations on mycorrhized plants. For roots colonization by the fungus and growth results, the inoculum proportion of the rooting media the most appropriate for  Juniperus Sabina  `Blue Danube', a slow-rooting species, was 40%, and the most appropriate for  Cornus sericea  `Coloradensis', a quick-rooting species, was 20%.
