Genetic superiority
Wide assortment of tropical plants
Tissue culture of plants is a modern plant propagation method that involves growing genetically identical plants from small tissue samples, called explants, under sterile lab conditions. This advanced technique is especially popular in commercial horticulture for multiplying tropical species, ornamentals, food crops, and medicinal plants. Plant tissue culture propagation has become a go-to solution for growers who require speed, control, and scalability in their production cycles. At Greenhouse Plants, we specialize in providing reliable, lab-grown starter material that supports the success of professional growers worldwide.
How Does Tissue Culture Propagation of Plants Work?
The process of plant tissue culture propagation follows a carefully structured sequence:
- Explant selection: a healthy section of tissue, often from a leaf, stem, or meristem, is selected from a robust mother plant.
- Sterilization: the explant is disinfected to eliminate bacteria, fungi, and viruses, ensuring a clean starting point.
- Culture initiation: the tissue is placed on a nutrient-rich growth medium containing sugars, plant hormones (auxins and cytokinins), agar, and micronutrients.
- Multiplication: under optimal lab conditions, the explant begins to form multiple new shoots or plantlets.
- Rooting: the new shoots are transferred to a medium that promotes strong root formation.
- Acclimatization: the young plants are gradually introduced to greenhouse conditions, including natural humidity, temperature, and light.

Why Choose Plant Tissue Culture Propagation?
The benefits of using plant tissue culture are both scientific and strategic:
- All plant material is cultivated in sterile environments to eliminate contamination.
- Every plant matches the original source, ideal for consistent commercial output.
- Thousands of identical plants can be produced from a single mother.
- Compact lab setups allow for high-yield growth.
- Full traceability ensures plants meet strict industry standards.
Our techniques outperform traditional seed propagation when uniformity and speed are needed. Depending on the project, we advise on the best types of propagation, including tissue culture cloning, to meet your goals. Combined with expert plant cultivation, our approach is designed to elevate every stage of your growing operation.
