Abstract: We define analogues of the graphs of free splittings, of cyclic splittings, and of maximally-cyclic splittings of $F_N$ for free products of groups, and show their hyperbolicity. Given a countable group $G$ which splits as $G=G_{1}astdotsast{G}_{k}astF$, where $F$ denotes a finitely generated free group, we identify the Gromov boundary of the graph of relative cyclic splittings with the space of equivalence classes of $mathcalZ$-averse trees in the boundary of the corresponding outer space. A tree is emph{$mathcalZ$-averse} if it is not compatible with any tree $T^{\prime }$, that is itself compatible with a relative cyclic splitting. Two $mathcalZ$-averse trees are emph{equivalent} if they are both compatible with a common tree in the boundary of the corresponding outer space. We give a similar description of the Gromov boundary of the graph of maximally-cyclic splittings.
