Remember when you did this?

• Ancient peoples• Middle ages
– Herbals

Seeds are Formed by…
Pollination:The transfer of pollen from the anthers to the female stigma by a pollinating agent such as wind, insects, birds, bats, or in a few cases the opening of the flower itself.
Fertilization: The fusion of two gametes (sperm and ovum) to produce a zygote that develops into a new individual with a genetic heritage derived from both parents.

Seeds- A packaged plant surrounded by endosperm (food) and protective seed coat

Asexual or Vegetative Propagation
• Leaf Cuttings and Leaf-bud Cuttings• Stem Cuttings• Root Cuttings• Division• Layering
– Tip Layering– Air Layering
• Grafting• Bulbs, Corms, Rhizomes, Tubers, Stolons

Leaf Cuttings- Use only the leaf
Vein cutting
from leaf
RememberPolarity or
which way is up!
Leaf Section Cutting

How do leaf cuttings grow?
• Origins of roots and shoots varies
• Meristem tissue - Group of embryonic cells that can differentiate and produce new cells
• Compounds trigger growth of roots and shoots
Root apical meristematic tissue of onion
Shoot apical meristematic tissue

Stem Cuttings- Use the stem and leaves or just the stem.
Cuttings should be 6-10” long & between nodes
Dibble, then placecutting in soil

How Do Stem Cuttings Work?
• How roots develop– Response to wounding-induced differentiation– Cells begin to divide – Callus begins to form– Certain cells begin to divide and initiate root
development

Bulbs- Specialized roots and stems
• Bulbs- Underground organ with scales and basal plate1. Tunicate- onion, garlic, daffodil, tulip2. Non-Tunicate- Lily
![Page 17: Bellringer 4.29.13 What is a plant that is propagated asexually? Why would a grower want to asexually propagate?](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070414/5697c01b1a28abf838ccfa4d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Corms- Specialized roots and stems
• Corms- Swollen base of stem axis, give rise to new bulblets
• Examples– Gladiolus, – Crocus
Gladioluscorm with bulblets

Division- To separate a clump into individual plants-Used for perennials and some houseplants
Photos from Garden Gate Magazine
Dig up Mother Plant Clean off root ball Separate roots to find individual plants and
plant

Layering- Growing new plants while attached to the mother plant. They are later separated.
Ground layering
Air layering

How can I propagate my bulbs?
• Tunicate Bulbs– Cuttage (8 Sections)
• Non-tunicate Bulbs
Bulb Scales
![Page 23: Bellringer 4.29.13 What is a plant that is propagated asexually? Why would a grower want to asexually propagate?](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070414/5697c01b1a28abf838ccfa4d/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
When to propagate
• Late spring and early summer= optimal growing time
• Depends on type of cutting • Need to check resources for specific plants.
Each one may have an optimal time• Some seeds need to go through stratification
or period of cold to break dormancy• Some seeds need to be scarified or scratched
![Page 24: Bellringer 4.29.13 What is a plant that is propagated asexually? Why would a grower want to asexually propagate?](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070414/5697c01b1a28abf838ccfa4d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Propagation Environment
• Aerial Environment– Humidity– Light– Temperature– Air quality
• Growing Medium– Moisture level– Temperature– Aeration– pH– Nutrient level
![Page 25: Bellringer 4.29.13 What is a plant that is propagated asexually? Why would a grower want to asexually propagate?](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070414/5697c01b1a28abf838ccfa4d/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Equipment and Hygiene- Keep everything clean so disease is not spread
Pruning knife
Hand cutters
Watering CanLiners
and Light
Sterilize all toolswith alcohol after
use!

Soil
• Purpose of soil– Larger particles (sand) holds plant in place – Smaller particles hold water and nutrients
• Ingredients in soil– Vermiculite= Holds moisture– Perlite= Increases aeration– Peat=Moisten –Helps stop decomposition – Sand=Drainage– Sphagnum Moss= Holds water well, lightweight
• Recipes and proportions vary depending on plant!

When can I plant it?
• Gently tug on the cutting to see if your plant has developed a good root system
• Repot in larger pot if necessary
