Abstract

The article discusses the propagation technique of layering in gardening. Layering involves burying a stem of a plant while it is still attached to its parent plant, which encourages the stem to form roots. There are different types of layering techniques, including simple, tip, serpentine, air, mound, and trench layering. Each technique is suited for different types of plants. Layering takes longer to complete compared to other propagation methods, but it requires less effort from the gardener. The article provides step-by-step instructions for layering and lists various plants that are good candidates for this technique. [Extracted from the article]
