Le marcottage en butte, adapté aux espèces pouvant se receper facilement, est utilisé pour l'obtention de porte-greffe fruitiers. Il nécessite la culture de pieds mères rabattus en hiver. Au printemps, la souche, qui se garnit de jeunes rameaux feuillus, est buttée. Des racines sont émises à la base des rameaux, qui seront séparés du pied mère en hiver.
