Apical cuttings of 'Roxo de Valinhos' fig tree collected at different times, may present differentiated rooting, which could propitiate, in practice, the knowledge of the right moment to use the cuttings for their propagation. The aim of the present work was to verify the effect of the collection time of the cutting and the treatment with IBA on the rooting of the apical cuttings of 'Roxo de Valinhos' fig tree. Woody cuttings of apical portion of the branches were collected at the end of the first fortnight of the months May, June, July, August, and September. They were standardized at 20 cm length and 7 mm diameter. The cutting was treated or not with 2000 mg L-1 IBA for 10 seconds. Soon after, the cuttings were buried in a moist sand bed at nursery conditions with 50% light. After 60 days, the percentage of live cuttings and their rooting, shooting, average number of shoots and roots were evaluated. It was concluded that the apical cuttings of 'Roxo de Valinhos' fig tree should be collected in June and treated with 2000 mg L-1 IBA.
