Vegetative Reproduction
In vegetative reproduction new plants are developed from non-reproductive part such as leaves, branchesand stems of the parent plant.
Propagation by Rhizome
Rhizomes are horizontal stems that grow under the ground,often sending out roots and shoots from their nodes. If a rhizome is separated into pieces, each pieces may be able to give rise to a new plant.

Propagation
by Bulb
Bulbs are shortened underground storage structures. They are stems that are enclosed with fleshy, concentric layered leaves. Bulbs produce smaller buds (lateral buds) which appear between the layers of the parent bulb.
-
Propagation
by Tuber
Tubers, such as potatoes, are fleshy underground storage structures composed of enlarged parts of the stem. A tuber functions in asexual propagation as a result of the tiny scale leaves equipped with buds that grow on its surface.Each of these buds can form a new plant, genetically identical to the parent.
-
Propagation
by Cutting
Cutting involves removing a piece of the parent plant - stem, root or leaf, and planting it in a suitable medium.
-
Propagation
by Grafting
-
Two plants are used to develop a new plant with combined traits from the parent plants. In grafting one plant attached on to body of the other plant.
Propagation
by Layering
-
This is the method of vegetative propagation in which branch of a parent plant is bent to the ground or water until it can be covered by soil and new root system appears. The tip of the shoot remains above ground. New roots and eventually a new plant will grow.
Tissue Culture
Tissue Culture is a method of biological research in
which the fragments of tissue from an animal or plant are transferred to an artificial environment in which they can continue to survive and function.Cells in a culture may
multiply; change size, form or function,exhibit specialized
activity or interact with other cells.
