Someone scraping the outer fiber of the
branch..
Someone place a soil in the branch of a plant

 In order to attain these objectives, I want you

activities.

Class, have you seen a plants that is still small Yes, ma’am!
but has fruit and flowers?

Do you have an idea how those plants has ( Student answer may vary)
fruits and flowers even they are small?

Alright! In order for plants to bloom and bear

fruit even if it is small, we must use different
methods.

Do you know what are these methods? (Students answer may vary)

Alright! So these are the methods of planting

ornamental plants.

1. Cutting

- this is the easiest method of artificial plant

propagation. The branch is cut, rooted, and
planted. It is also done in leaves and roots.

(The teacher demonstrate the cutting)

2. Marcotting

- this is done on the branch or trunk of the tree

while it has not yet been separated from the
tree. It is done on fruit trees like chico and
mango.

In marcotting, these are steps to be

followed:

1. Skin removal
2. Scraping of the outer fiber of the branch
3. Placing soil and moss
4. Wrapping it with coconut/plastic
5. Binding

(The teacher demonstrate the steps)

3. Inarching

- in this method , the branch of one tree is

combined with the branch of another tree
placed in the pot.

Arching consists of the following steps:

1. Make a long cut in the tree or branch to

join.
2. Face the two slices and tie tightly.
(The teacher demonstrate inarching method)

4. Grafting

- this method combines two branches from

two trees.

( The teacher demonstrate this method)

Remember:
 Be careful in cutting branches or trunk
of a plant or trees to avoid wounds.
