Question

Why is vegetative propagation practised for growing some types of plants?

Answer 1

Vegetative propagation is the ability of the plants to reproduce by producing new plants from the vegetative plant parts such as leaf, stem, or roots under appropriate conditions. This method is the only means of reproduction for some seedless plant varieties such as banana, rose, and jasmine. However, this method of reproduction is also used for agricultural purposes in commercial production of some plants such as sugarcane, grapes, roses, etc.
