Detailed explanation-1: -Some plants can be propagated from just a single leaf. Many of these plants have compressed stems, making it impossible to take stem cuttings. These include African violets, bush-type peperomias, and Sansevieria. Some succulents, such as jade plant and jelly bean plant, can also be propagated from a single leaf.
Detailed explanation-2: -Some plants like papaya, marigold, chilli, capsicum, tomato, etc., cannot be propagated by asexual method. It is the only means of creating genetic diversity of plants.
Detailed explanation-3: -Types of Stem Cuttings. The four main types of stem cuttings are herbaceous, softwood, semi-hardwood, and hardwood. These terms reflect the growth stage of the stock plant, which is one of the most important factors influencing whether or not cuttings will root.
Detailed explanation-4: -Some plants, called leaf cuttings, which produce both stems and roots, can be grown from leaf pieces. Cuttings are also known as the scraps used in grafting. So, the correct answer is, ‘Bougainvillea’.
