A successful cutting requires that the new plant acquire its own

The part of a desired plant inserted into rootstock during grafting is called the
scion
scion

root stock
the portion of a plant with the root system used in grafting
layering
the technique of developing roots on a stem of a plant while that stem is still attached to the parent plant
If you develop a particular flower which cannot be reproduced by seeds, it could be preserved by grafting true/false
true
grafting is an ancient practice true/false
true
stem cutting
