1. It is a cheaper, and convenient method of multiplication of plants. 

2. Several plants: Such as banana, grapes, roses, gladioli, Chrysanthemums do not form viable seeds. Thus vegetative propagation is the only method of multiplication and continuation of species in such plants. 

3. The greatest advantage is that all plants produced by vegetative propagation are genetically similar to the parent plant. A uniform population raised from a single parent is known as a clone.
