Natural regeneration is very scarce. Seedlings can be found as far as 200 m from mother trees, especially between buttresses. Height increment in a 2-year-old plantation was 0.7 – 2.9 m and diameter increment is 0.6 – 3.8 cm. Petersianthus quadrialatus trees coppice easily.
Strongylodon macrobotrys, commonly known as the jade vine, emerald vine, [2] or turquoise jade vine, [3] is a leguminous vine endemic to the Philippines. It is a popular ornamental plant known for its cascading clusters of vibrant turquoise or greenish-blue claw-shaped flowers. Cultivating jade vine requires a tropical environment, making it a ...

Layering is a vegetative propagation technique where the stem or branch of a plant is manipulated to promote root development while still attached to the parent plant. Once roots are established, the new plant can be detached from the parent and planted.
Grafting, 1870, by Winslow Homer — an example of grafting. Fruit tree propagation is usually carried out vegetatively (non-sexually) by grafting or budding a desired variety onto a suitable rootstock. Perennial plants can be propagated either by sexual or vegetative means.
The major limitation in the use of micropropagation for many plants is the cost of production; for many plants the use of seeds, which are normally disease free and produced in good numbers, readily produce plants (see orthodox seed) in good numbers at a lower cost. For this reason, many plant breeders do not utilize micropropagation because ...
Cultivated Jasminum sambac generally do not bear seeds and the plant is reproduced solely by cuttings, layering, marcotting, and other methods of asexual propagation. [ 6 ] [ 11 ] [ 12 ] The leaves are ovate , 4 to 12.5 cm (1.6 to 4.9 in) long and 2 to 7.5 cm (0.79 to 2.95 in) wide.
Vegetative Propagation in Bryophyllum leaf Kalanchoe laetivirens in the Philippines Kalanchoe pinnata in Nepal. Species of Bryophyllum are nested within Kalanchoe on molecular phylogenetic analysis. [2] [3] Therefore, Bryophyllum should be a section or subgenus of Kalanchoe rather than a separate genus. [4] [5]
