Some Ornamental plants and Their Propagation

Abstract

There is a wide diversity of the plant species over the world. As per their genetic makeup as well as adaptability to their natural habitats the group of the individual plant species showing their presence in nature. On the basis of their utility plants are categorized as for Medicinal, Flowering, Ornamental plants etc. Loss of natural habitat, excess utilization, diseases etc are key factors playing a remarkable role in minimization of the plants. The number and variety may be variable based of plant tolerance capacity and related environmental condition. Nature has provided many modes to the plants for multiplication such as by Seeds and the plants which are not capable to produce seeds are having capacity for multiplication by another ways known as vegetative methods. Root, Stem, Leaf or their modified forms are capable to produce a second one copy of the same parental plants. Seed production rates, distribution pattern, capacity of germination in different environmental condition are leading factors for spreading of the plant species. The environmental condition which supports the root ignition and bud formation from vegetative parts of the plant is an urgent need for Plant growth. Present study aimed for propagation of various ornamental plants by all possible methods like seeds and by vegetative mode also. The plants were planted in the soil filled in poly bags separately and propagated for further utilization. INTRODUCTION India is a rich center of plant diversity due to varied climatic conditions as well as soil qualities which provide a better platform for the diverse plant groups. In India around 45000 plant species are spread over the area (Mayers, 1988). Variation in plant propagation can be observed in the nature like some plants are producing many seeds for future generation with their unique type of dispersal mechanism. Among a large diversity of the plants, many plants does not produces seeds and are equally distributed by propagating itself following another mode of propagation like by bud, bulb, rhizome, tuber, corm, stem cutting etc. Some plants are also capable to regenerate by both the methods like by their Seeds and Stem cutting. An ornamental plant acts as an interaction of the people towards them for their unique beauty. India is blessed with a numerous plant diversity of specified utility among them many of the ornamental plants are grown in small or in large scale in the country based on places as well as market demand. Vegetative propagation of Asculus indica through stem cutting treated with plant growth regulators was recorded by Majeed et. al. (2009). Some plants stems are producing easily roots whereas some generating roots very difficulty. (Nanda, 1970). Studies on wild ornamental plants were made by Reddy et. al (2012). Man made activities are mainly responsible for loss of the plant species (Arora, 1993). Nanda and Kochhar (1987) recorded that stem cutting as a popular plant propagation method. Curculigo orchiodes Gaertn – An endangered plants micropropagation was observed by Bhavishwa et. al (2003). Patter P. V. and Jayraj M. (2012) studied on Rapid callogenesis and plant regeneration from nodal explants of Sida cordifolia L. an important medicinal plant. Propagation of the node explants of Rose was studied by Farahani and Soodeh (2012). Ornamental plants cutting experiment done by Fazal and Shard (1991). In vitro studies on different plants were conducted by Bisth et. al (2011), Naz et. al (2012), Praveen and Rasheed (2013) and Shokri et. al (2012). Growth regulator effect on rooting of Corylus colurina was done by Kurtela et. al (2001). The current study aimed for Propagation of the various ornamental plants with minimum prize and by simple technique. MATERIALS AND METHODS The current study was conducted during 2011 -1012 in the departmental nursery of rural technology at G.G.V. (A Central University) Bilaspur (C. G.). Several poly bags were filled with fertile soil collected from River basin Arpa. Each five poly bags were used for propagation of all the plants individually. The plant propagules/parts were used for multiplying them. As per need of the plant/parts were supplied water and further weed, nutrient diseases etc. were managed by suitable technique over the study period. Plant parts used for propagation were collected from different sites of the Chhattisgarh state. More than half of the studied plants were propagated by using their stem cutting as were oblique deep in poly bags soil and in initial stage provided light irrigation. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Results of the current study shown in Table – 1. Habits of the studied plants given in Table 2. Table -3 is for Propagation mode of varied ornamental plants. Family wise distributions of the plants are given in Table 4. Graphical representation of the studied plants habit, propagation mode and related families are also shown. Table -1. List of the “Ornamental plants and their Mode of Propagation”. S. No. Botanical Name Family Habit Propagation Parts Mode of Propagation 1. Asparagus racemosus Willd. Liliaceae Shrub/Climber Seed/Tuber Poly Bags 2. Bougainvillia glabra Nyctaginaceae Shrub Stem cutting Poly Bags 3. Caladium bicolour Vent. Araceae Herb Bulb Poly Bags
