rnFast tell me now....
Vegetative propagation is a mode of asexual reproduction in plants where the vegetative parts such as roots, leaves, stems, etc. are used to propagate the plants.
Some advantages of vegetative propagation are -
(a) It is useful in propagation plants which do not produce viable seeds or produce very few seeds .
(b) The plants produced by vegetative propagation have exactly the same characters as that of the parent plant i.e; it helps in preserving the characters of the parent plant which is a very important advantage.
(c) It is a quicker method of producing several plants in a short time.
(d) It helps in propagation of ornamental plants where frequency of fertilisation is less.
