DENDROLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Runners and stolons are surface stems characteristic of such plants as strawberries; new plants may form on the runner or stolon as it spreads along the ground.

Detailed explanation-2: -Stolons are stems that run almost parallel to the ground, or just below the surface, and can give rise to new plants at the nodes. Runners are a type of stolon that runs above the ground and produces new clone plants at nodes at varying intervals: strawberries are an example.

Detailed explanation-3: -Vegetative Reproduction This type of reproduction occurs when new individuals are formed without the production of seeds or spores. The formation of new plants out of rhizomes or stolons is an example of vegetative reproductive, such as in the strawberry plant.

Detailed explanation-4: -Strawberry plants reproduce via runners.

Detailed explanation-5: -Strawberries (Fragaria × ananassa) are a common perennial garden plant that reproduces using runners. There are three categories of strawberry: June-bearers, everbearers and day-neutrals. In all types, strawberry runners shoot out during the growing season to root themselves near the original plants.
