  2. Grafting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grafting

    Bud grafting (also called chip budding or shield budding) uses a bud instead of a twig. [8] Grafting roses is the most common example of bud grafting. In this method a bud is removed from the parent plant, and the base of the bud is inserted beneath the bark of the stem of the stock plant from which the rest of the shoot has been cut.

  3. Forcing (horticulture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forcing_(horticulture)

    For example, exposing the dormant roots of some geophytic plants, such as tulips, to a combination of cold temperatures and moisture immediately prior to warm temperatures is an effective method of forcing them into flower. [2] Exposing woody plants, such as fruit trees, to warmer conditions than are normal in the area--such as growing them in ...

  4. Plant reproduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_reproduction

    Along with modifications involving the above structures two other conditions play a very important role in the sexual reproduction of flowering plants, the first is the timing of flowering and the other is the size or number of flowers produced. Often plant species have a few large, very showy flowers while others produce many small flowers ...

  5. Fruit tree propagation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fruit_tree_propagation

    However, although this works well for some plants (such as figs and olives), for most fruit tree cultivars this method has much too low a success rate to be commercially viable. Root cuttings (pieces of root cut off and induced to grow a new trunk) are also not used to propagate fruit trees, although this method is successful with some ...

  6. Plant propagation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_propagation

    Plants are produced using material from a single parent and as such, there is no exchange of genetic material, therefore vegetative propagation methods almost always produce plants that are identical to the parent. In some plants, seeds can be produced without fertilization and the seeds contain only the genetic material of the parent plant.

  7. Vegetative reproduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vegetative_reproduction

    Most common methods of natural vegetative reproduction involve the development of a new plant from specialized structures of a mature plant. In addition to adventitious roots , roots that arise from plant structures other than the root, such as stems or leaves, modified stems , leaves and roots play an important role in plants' ability to ...

  8. Horticulture - Wikipedia

    Horticulture is the science and art of growing fruits, vegetables, flowers, or ornamental plants. Horticulture is commonly associated with the more professional and technical aspects of plant cultivation on a smaller and more controlled scale than agronomy .

  9. Shield budding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shield_budding

    T-budding is the most common style, whereby a T-shaped slit is made in the stock plant, and the knife is flexed from side to side in the lower slit to loosen up the bark. Scion wood is selected from the chosen variety, as young, actively growing shoots. Usually, buds at the tip, or at the older parts of the shoot are discarded, and only two to ...
