1. Bryophyla
2. Tamarind
3. Rose
4. Bryophyllum

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 3 : Rose

The correct answer is Rose.

• Rooting stem cuttings is a common way of propagating herbaceous plants.
  • But it also can work with woody-stemmed plants, including roses.
  • Native roses root easily, more so than grafted varieties, though you shouldn't expect every cutting to be successful.

 

• Most rose varieties grow readily from stem cuttings, which allows you to expand your garden with minimal out-of-pocket costs.
• A cutting from a healthy, productive stem can produce its own root system and quickly grow into a new flowering bush.
• The propagation of roses can be performed in different ways: - By plant division and layering (for hardwood species). - By seeding (as for all species giving grains). - "in vitro" propagation: a very short time, 1 to 2 months instead of 12 to 18 months with upper methods.
• Wild roses (Rosa spp.) propagate through either sexual reproduction -- pollination and seeding -- or asexual reproduction, such as when their stems root as they trail along the ground in fertile soil or when their roots send up new shoots from underground.
