Best Answer

This process is sometimes called cloning because every new plant is exactly like the parent. One type of cloning uses cuttings--parts of plants that grow into new plants. Both stems and leaves can be used as cuttings. Another kind of cloning is grafting--the joining together of two plants into one. Other kinds of cloning use bulbs or tubers--underground parts that make new plants.

A bumble bee comes along and gets pollen atached to it and it then goes onto the stigma of a plant which makes the plant reproduce, and creat a copy of the plant.This is a natural way that plants clone themselfs.

Someone probably cut off a piece of a plant that landed on the ground and it grew a new plant, or maybe they saw how some plants will start a new plant when the branch of the plant hits the ground. It is really hard to say for sure because this has been done for so long there are no records of the first occurrence of plant cloning.
