Propagating Plants: Guide To Plant Propagation: Plant Propagation Methods

Plant propagation is the process of increasing the number of plants of a particular species or cultivar. There are two primary forms of plant propagation: sexual and asexual. In nature, the propagation of plants most often involves sexual reproduction or the production of viable seeds. When exposed to proper environmental conditions, these seeds germinate and grow into mature, reproductive plants. Over the years, horticulturists have also developed asexual propagation methods that use vegetative plant parts.

This allows plants to be created in ways that nature cannot duplicate. Follow the guide in this book and you'll be putting the 'pro' in propagation in no time.
