[Rhamnaceae]), sand cherry (Prunus pumila L. [Rosaceae]), and sweetbells (Eubotrys racemosa L. [Ericaceae]) are eastern US native shrubs with high potential for expanded landscape use because of their numerous ornamental attributes and adaptability. Micropropagation protocols were developed for these species that produce acceptable shoot multiplication rates, 100% microcutting rooting, and high-quality liner plants. New Jersey tea is not easily produced from seed or stem cuttings for commercial purposes, but we have demonstrated that micropropagation is a viable method for commercial propagation. In addition, micropropagation can be effectively used to rapidly propagate new superior genotypes of sand cherry and sweetbells.</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
