Solution
The correct option is A Bryophyllum and Kalanchoe Marginal notches in Kalanchoe and Bryophyllum possess adventitious buds in their leaves for vegetative propagation. These plants form detachable plantlets (small plants) in notches along their leaf margins.
Chrysanthemum undergoes vegetative propogation either through root suckers or terminal.
Agave vegetatively propogates by aerial bulbils and rhizomes. Asparagus vegetatively propogates by rhizomes.
