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.
Monocot and dicot are short for monocotyledon and dicotyledon. These are different types of Angiosperms (flower-producing plants). Monocotyledons have veins going up to the top of the leaf and no midrib, while dicotyledons have veins branching out from a thick, center midrib.Monocots have only one cotyledon in the seed while dicots have two cotyledons.hese are different types of Angiosperms (flower-producing plants).
