At present (and I stress "present"), plants cannot grow without water being added to its environment in one form or another (water, water vapour etc.).

This includes plans grown in terrariums where the water is recycled.

However, take a look at the link below and see some of the research that is currently being performed in this aspect.

Yes. Hydroponics is growing without soil, just water, light and nutrients!

In fact, a lot of the plants you see for sale at garden centers are grown this way. It is cheaper and more reliable than the traditional ways. Hydroponics seems to be the future. If you are interested, there are many sites available, just search for home hydroponics.

Generally, no, however some plants (such as Pothos) can be regenerated by taking a leaf cutting and keeping it in vase of water until new roots begin to form on the stem, then replanting it.

Ya! It is right but there are some water plants that can resist without roots.

Many plants growing in water do not possess roots because there is a little requirement for absorption of water as they are surrounded with water. For example, wolffia. They bear the smallest flowers amongst all. There are some plants in which roots develop only for fixation in the soil. For example, Hydrilla.

Hope this answer helps you!

There are ways to plant a plant without roots. There are products on the market that will help this process and have a cutting grow its own roots. Check out the related link for some additional information on how to grow a plant from a cutting.
