An alternate strategy has been developed that can result in 30% profit over the existing method of carnation multiplication considering the resource, space and time required. This alternate strategy combines the advantages of tissue culture with that of vegetative multiplication. Protocol has been developed to produce maximum microshoots through tissue culture. Appropriate media and source of explants has been worked out to maximize the production of microshoots. Right media and conditions for rooting of these microshoots as shoot tip cuttings has also been worked out.
