Question

Give two methods used to grow rose plants by vegetative propagation.

Answer 1

Two methods used to grow rose plants by vegetative propagation are:

1. Stem Cutting: Cutting a healthy stem and planting it in the ground allows it to sprout roots and become a new plant.
2. Budding (T-budding or Shield Budding): To create a new plant with the required features, a bud from a preferred rose variety is grafted onto a rootstock.
