Answer Details
The process of inducing root development on portions of stems still attached to the parent plant is known as layering. This is a method of propagating new plants from existing plants. In layering, a portion of the stem of a plant is bent down and partially buried in the soil, while still attached to the parent plant. Roots will grow from this buried portion of the stem, and once the roots are well established, the new plant can be separated from the parent plant and grown independently.
