Plant propagation is the

process which grows new

plants from a variety of
sources such as seeds,
cuttings, and other plant parts.
 2 types
1. Sexual propagation- is the
reproduction of plants by seeds.
2. Asexual propagation involves taking
a part of one parent plant and causing
it to regenerate itself into a new plant.
-This is propagated by the use of
stems, roots, and leaves.
