Natural vegetative propagation by leaves: The fleshy leaves of Bryophyllum bear adventitious buds in the notches along the leaf margin.
Grafting: In this method of reproduction, two plants of closely related varieties are joined together so that they live as one plant.
The portion of a plant that is grafted on the other plant is called scion, and the plant in which grafting is performed is called the stock.
This method is applied to improve variety of fruits like mango, apple, peas, citrus and guava.
