Hello folks, Just to add my two cents in about bulbs that tend to stay solitary, I know that euphorbia obesa and possibly other succulents that are known to have solitary heads will throw offsets if the growing point is damaged, ( Please don't ask me where the growing point is on a haemanthus : ) ). Could the rare event of solitary haemie's creating pups occur because their growing points have been damaged ? I also read that damaging the growing point can sometimes kill the plant so that those who decide to blow torch their plant for the sake of creating progeny may get an unpleasant surprise. : ) Cherry G
