Natural vegetative propagation involves the reproduction of plants through structures such as runners, rhizomes, bulbs, tubers, and stolons.
- Runners are horizontal stems that grow above the ground and produce new plants at nodes along the stem. Examples include strawberry plants and spider plants.
- Rhizomes are underground stems that grow horizontally and produce new shoots and roots at nodes along the stem. Examples include ginger and bamboo plants.
- Bulbs are underground storage organs that contain a short stem and fleshy leaves. New plants grow from buds on the bulb. Examples include tulips and onions.
- Tubers are underground storage organs that contain enlarged portions of the stem or root. New plants grow from buds on the tuber. Examples include potatoes and yams.
- Stolons are horizontal stems that grow above the ground and produce new plants at nodes along the stem. Examples include strawberry plants and spider plants.
These structures allow plants to reproduce asexually and produce genetically identical offspring, helping them spread and colonize new areas.

Natural Vegetative Propagation Structures:
- Rhizomes: Underground stems that grow horizontally, sending up shoots and roots at intervals.
- Tubers: Swollen underground stems that store nutrients, such as potatoes and sweet potatoes.
- Bulbs: Short, fleshy underground stems with scale-like leaves, such as onions and garlic.
- Runners: Long, slender above-ground stems that root at nodes, such as strawberries and blackberries.
- Suckers: Shoots that grow from underground roots, forming new plants.
- Tillers: Shoots that arise from the base of existing plants, such as grasses and bamboo.
- Offshoots: Small plants that develop on the margins of a parent plant, connected by runners or stolons.
- Fragmentation: Breaking off of plant parts, such as leaves or stems, which can then develop into new plants.
- Adventitious Roots: Roots that form from tissues other than roots, such as on stems or leaves.
