Although I have never personally tried this technique, it is listed in an RHS book on propagation, as suitable for most monocots that have a leaf with a good midrib, such as snowdrops, and presumably many other bulbous plants. The description is the same as cutting up sansevaria (spelling?) leaves, into short sections across the leaf. I think the main risk is with bruising soft leaves and rot setting in. I would be interested in any success with this technique.
