That's called a "cutting" or "cloning".

How new plant grow from rose?
A new rose plant grows from rose cuttings(stem cuttings).
Plants grown from runners and leaf cuttings have the same traits as the parent plant but plants grown from seeds can vary from the parent plants in many ways.Why can this happen?
The runners are basically clones since they are part of the same plant, but seeds have the traits of both plants so it can look different and vary - It is a mix of the two.
One example of a trait passed from a parent plant to it's offspring is?
the color of the flowers on the plant.
Why do gardeners use method of cutting and grafting?
Gardeners and farmers use artificial methods of vegetative propagation to increase the Stock of a plant. The following two are the most common methods of artificial vegetative propagation.1. Cuttings:Artificial vegetative propagation in which cuttings are taken from stem or root of parent and are placed in soil.In this method, cuttings may be taken mainly from the stems or roots of parent plant. These cuttings must have a meristematic region from which growth can occur. When cuttings are placed in a suitable soil and under right conditions (sufficient nutrients, water and sunlight), they form roots and shoots. Roots and shoots grow and develop into a plant identical to the parent plant from which the cuttings were taken.Example:Roses, ivy and grapevines are propagated by stem cuttings. Sweet potato is an enlarged root. Farmers place it in moist sand or soil until it produces several plantlets. Then the plantlets are removed and planted.Advantages:Cutting is used to produce many plants from a single plant. All new plants are exactly the same. This artificial vegetative propagation has been very beneficial on sugar cane plantation.2. Grafting:A type of artificial vegetative propagation in which a piece of stem is cut from the plant and is inserted into another plant with established root system.Explanation:In grafting, a piece of stem is cut from the plant and is attached with another plant with established root system. After a while, the vascular bundles of the attached stem piece and the host plant are connected to each other. The stem piece and the plant begin to grow together.Advantages:This method is used to propagate many roses, peach trees, plum trees and various seedless fruits (including grapes).email: shoaibbilal64@Yahoo.com
How are cuttings and seed similar?
Cuttings and seeds are both used for plant propagation. They both have the potential to develop into new plants. However, cuttings are portions of a plant that are removed and rooted to produce new growth, while seeds are reproductive structures containing embryos that can germinate and grow into new plants when provided with the right conditions.
Which method of reproduction creates a plant that is identical to the parent?
Taking cuttings.
How are cuttings produced in agriculture or gardening?
A cutting is simply a piece of the parent plant, suitable for propagation. After it is rooted it becomes a plant, a clone of the parent.
What is a plant that can grow from leaf cuttings?
Bryophyllum propagates from leaf cuttings. Small buds develop at the grooves of leaf margins. Each of these buds are capable of growing into separate plant.
Are new leaves appearing on a tree in the spring an example of reproduction?
No. Reproduction is caused by seed or cuttings from the parent plant producing a new plant. Budding in the Spring is just continuation of life.
What is an example of germinate in a sentence?
The plant had to germinate before I could take cuttings from it.
How new plant grow from rose?
A new rose plant grows from rose cuttings(stem cuttings).
If you have a clone of a cultivar can you legally sell plants sexually propagated from your clone?
a rooted cutting from a plant Answer If by clone you mean a sport that is visually different from the parent then you can. If by clone you mean a cutting of the parent and the parent is covered by Plant Breeders Rights legislation then it is illegal to sell rooted cuttings of that plant though you can give them away.
Why are plant cutting of great value to the horticulture industry?
I believe the question is "Why are plant cutting(s) of great value to the horticulture industry?" First, we need to know what "cuttings" are. Cuttings are parts of a plant that have been removed in some fashion, such as leaves or twigs or roots. Under the right conditions of soil, moisture, humidity, etc., that plant part may start to grow roots and shoots, and become a fully developed plant in itself. So, why is this of value to horticulture? Several reasons: 1. Interestingly, a cutting will become exactly the same type of plant as the plant from which the cutting was removed. Therefore it is a clone. This type of cloning has been done by man for 1000's of years, but has been done by nature (likely) for as long as plants have existed. As a clone, it will have all the same traits as the parent plant, same color flowers, same tasting fruit, same growth habit, etc. 2. When using cuttings, one plant (the parent) can produce many, many plants in a relatively short period of time, usually far more rapidly than seeds. The smaller the cuttings are, the more plants that can be produced in a given period of time. Very small cuttings are sometimes produced for laboratory growth, some being the size of only a few cells in clusters. This type of plant propagation from "cuttings" is called cell culture. 3. Some plant varieties, though producing seeds, will not grow identical varieties from that seed. This is a common occurrence for plants that are hybridized or that are called hybrids. The only way to reproduce the parent plant exactly is by way of cuttings. If you want lots of the same variety, cuttings are a good way to go. 4. One natural form of cutting (natural meaning occurring in nature) is the sprouting of a new plant from the roots. Once this plant is big enough, it can be cut from the parent (roots intact) and planted elsewhere. Strawberries send out a specialized stem which, once it touches the ground, will send out roots and shoots and become a new plant. Cut the old stem and it can be dug-up and moved to a more desirable location. Horticulturists have been using these natural forms of cuttings to multiply varieties rapidly. 5. Many people share plants by way of cuttings. Often, putting a leaf or small stem in a glass of water will start the roots and shoots growing. Later the plant is moved to soil. Though this method is common, not all plant species will root cuttings this easily. More challenging species require a little more science, such as rooting hormones, special nutrients, or specific growing conditions.
Plants grown from runners and leaf cuttings have the same traits as the parent plant but plants grown from seeds can vary from the parent plants in many ways.Why can this happen?
The runners are basically clones since they are part of the same plant, but seeds have the traits of both plants so it can look different and vary - It is a mix of the two.
Can you split a rosemary plant?
No but you can take cuttings.
What are the disadvantages of plants reproducing from plant cuttings?
There are no obvious disadvantages as every cutting that roots will be a clone of the parent. But there is one disadvantage that not every cutting will grow into a new plant so one should plant more than one cutting at a time
How do you reproduce a jasmine plant?
mostly by rooting cuttings
