Fair warning, Iâm going to nerd out here with a bit of a botany lesson. Flowering plants fall under two main categories: monocots and dicots. Dicots are more commonly used for propagation and rumor has it, they root from cuttings easier than monocots. However, snake plants, palms and zz plants are classified as monocots and I have successfully rooted all three from stem and leaf cuttings.
Monocots have only one cotyledon, dicots have two cotyledons. A cotyledon contains stored food and serves as a food reservoir. Aside from the difference between the seeds of monocots and dicots there are other different structures that separate monocots and dicots.Monocots have long, narrow leaves with parallel veins (such as grasses.) The parts of monocot flowers are arranged in threes or in multiples of three.Dicots have broad leaves with branched veins. The parts of dicot flowers are arranged in fours and fives or multiples of fours and fives.side from the difference between the seeds of monocots and dicots there are other different structures that separate monocots and dicots.
