How Does Asexual Reproduction Work in Plants?

Stolons, stems that sprout from plants above the ground, produce new nodes or growths by way of sprigging or stolonization. Strawberries and Bermudagrass reproduce by this method. There are also underground stems that help in the reproduction of plants. These are rhizomes, bulbs, corms and tubers. Daylilies are known to reproduce using rhizomes as well as some species of weeds. Plants can be divided to separate the daughter bulbs from the parent bulb and planted separately, if desired, to encourage further reproductions. Leaves Some plants asexually reproduce through the leaves by a method called mitosis, also known as cell divisions. Tiny plantlets are reproduced along the leaf margin
