The process of growing many plants from one plant by man-made methods is
called artificial propagation.
The three common methods of artificial propagation are:
Cutting
A small part of a plant which is removed by making a cut with a sharp knife is called cutting. Example - rose.
Layering
In this method, a branch of the plant is pulled towards the ground and a part of it is covered with moist soil leaving the tip of the branch exposed above the ground. After some time, new roots develop from the part of the branch buried in the soil. The branch is then cut off from the parent plant. The part of the plant which has developed roots grows to become new plant. Example - Jasmine plant.
Grafting
Grafting is the method in which cut stems of two different plants are joined together in such a way that the two stems join and grow as a single plant. The cut stem of a plant having roots is called stock whereas the cut stem of another plant without roots is called scion.
