How are "mass-made" desert roses grafted?

I don't know if this is 'too wide' a question but how are they grafted? Like, do they just have a bunch of plants with similar looking flowers with branches grafted on? Or do they make so many clippings of one flower that they nab the branches from to graft onto rootstock?

I'm just wondering how likely it is that a desert rose purchased from, let's say, Lowe's?, might have grafted branches with similar flowers but are genetically different?
