daughter plant

Clone from runner

A daughter plant is a new plant produced asexually from a parent plant, genetically identical to its source.

Strawberries send out runners that form daughter plants at their tips.

Spider plants dangle plantlets that can be separated and potted.

The term distinguishes vegetative offspring from plants grown from seed.
