What Is the Difference Between Separation and Division?

  •  Separation is the propagation method in which these natural structures are simply removed from the parent plant and planted to grow on their own
  •  Division is when one of these structures is cut into sections that will each grow into a new plant

What Is Layering and How Is It Used in Propagation?

  •  Layering is a simple method of asexual propagation in which roots are formed on a stem while it is still attached to the parent plant
  •  The parent plant supports the new plant during root development until the new plant can function on its own
