Propagation is any method or process that grows new plants from a variety of sources, including seeds, cuttings and other plant parts. Seeds are typically produced as a result of sexual reproduction. As a result, the genetic makeup of the resulting seed is a recombination of the contributing plants. Cuttings, though, are a method of vegetative reproduction. This means the new plants are a clone of the single parent that contributed the cutting.
