Is a method of propagating plants that form clusters. Each growing point is sepersted and individually planted.
Increasing plants by dividing them into several new plants, each with a root system & one or more buds
A method of propagating plants by separating each one into two or more sections and then repotting.
Method of propagating a new plant from a multiple-crowned African Violet on which the crowns have a shared root system. Division involves pulling the crowns apart and cutting through the common root system, resulting in two or more complete plants ready to be potted. Also see Separation. African Violets may also be propagated by seed, leaf cutting, peduncle cutting, tissue culture and by rooting a sucker.
Increasing plants by splitting the roots and top stems, eg irises.

A method of producing new plants from existing stock by digging up the plant, cutting it into two or more pieces, and replanting.
A way of increasing stocks of a plant by cutting or breaking it into two or more pieces, each of which contains at least one strong root and stem, and replanting them individually.
Propagation of a plant by separating its roots, crown, rhizomes.
The practice of splitting apart plants to create several smaller-rooted segments. It is commonly used on perennials, bulbs and some shrubs. The practice is useful for controlling the plantÕs size and for acquiring more plants; it is also essential to the health and continued flowering of certain ones.

The operation used to determine how many times a given number, or quantity, is contained in another number. Division is used to divide or partition a whole into parts. Division is the opposite of multiplication.
Division of the vegetative point of Rosette plants into two or more parts for propagation.
plant propagation by dividing a parent plant into 2 or more. Many parts of plants can be split, including roots, crowns, bulbs, leaves, fronds, etc.
Separating overgrown plants by dividing them into sections with a shovel or forks in preparation for replanting the sections. Herbs should be divided either after flowering in late summer or in early spring. The best time is when growth is minimal, and in warm, mild weather to avoid cold damage. It is important not to let roots dry out. Replant divisions right away. Before dividing, prepare the site where you will replant or get pots ready for the new plants. After lifting the plant, wash off the roots, disentangle them, and pull them apart or cut if the clumps are woody (thyme, for example). Make sure each section has a good root system. Replant immediately. Water thoroughly, and keep the plants well watered and weed-free until well-established.
Removal of part of a plant with roots in order to produce another plant.
a method of propagation in which the rhizome or vegetative cone is cut into pieces, each of which is capable of becoming a complete new plant
a newly dug section of rhizome that contains 1 or more culms
Division is an operation that divides a number into portions. Any number divided by one is equal to the original number. You cannot divide any number by zero. Division is the inverse of multiplication. In long division, the dividend is divided by the divisor, resulting in a quotient plus a remainder. The ÷ symbol is called an obelus.
A method of propagating shrubby plants by dividing the rootball and replanting the seperate sections.
An artificially propagated plant produced by splitting an adult plant into two or more pieces. Hoosier Orchid Company always maintains parental stock (master division) of all plants listed as divisions.

A method of plant propagation in which mature plants are carefully dug up and separated into a number of smaller plants.
used as the primary separation within the fungal kingdom. Four divisions are found including Chytridiomycota, Zygomycota, Ascomycota and Basidiomycota. Divisions are divided into classes (see classification).
Division, in horticulture and gardening, is a method of asexual plant propagation, where the plant (usually an herbaceous perennial) is broken up into two or more parts. Both the root and crown of each part is kept intact.
