Detailed explanation-2: -In cutting method of vegetative propagation, cuttings are mainly taken from roots or stems of the parent plant. Many types of plants, both woody and herbaceous, are frequently propagated by cuttings.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cutting propagation is a technique where a root, stem, or leaf is removed from a plant and placed in optimum conditions to allow that plant part, also called a propagule, to regenerate missing organs. This form of vegetative propagation allows gardeners to make an identical copy of a plant, called a clone.
