Asexual means "no sex" so they don't have parents. These plants have one parent - singular.

Asexual reproduction is the dividing of cells and giving each daughter cell a set of chromosomes identical to the parent cell. There is no exchange of genetic material so each of the offspring have the exact DNA of the single parent.
