Learning Journey to Botanic Gardens Caramel Plant Group members: Emilie,Wan yi,Mick and Chang hong Question:Which plant part can grow into a new plant? There are many ways to grow a plant. It can be through Vegetative propagation (stems,roots,leaves) or either by budding spore formation. Most plants reproduce by making seeds,but some can reproduce in another way too.New plants can develop from shoots that grow from plant’s stem. Crown These are compressed stems near the soil surface that are capable of producing leaves and roots.Crown are often planted with the roots attached,in which case they are more accurately referred to as roots.Crowns can be divided when the plants are dormant. Suckers/Offshoots Suckers,or offshoots,are plants that grow or shoot up from the root system of a mature plant. These suckers are dug up and divided from the mother plant, then transplanted to mature into a new plants. Slips Slips are young,tender,rooted cuttings or sprouts grown from roots.Sweet potatoes are the only vegetables commonly grown from slips. Tubers These are specialized swollen underground stems, capable of producing roots, stem and leaves.Irish potatoes and Jerusalem artichokes are usually grown from tubers.When tubers are cut up for planting,as in case of Irish potatoes,they are called seed pieces. Time for Quiz! Q1:How many plant parts did we mention that can grow into a new plant? Ans:eight Q2:what is the only vegetable that is grown from slips? Ans:Sweet potato/Potato Q3:What are slips? Ans:Slips are young,tender,rooted cutting or sprouts grown from roots. The End! Thank You For Your Attention!
