They have far more leaf variations than any other cyclamen I've encountered, and are far more satisfying than a lot of other winter greenhouse plants. That said, it is true that they have growing points all over the top surface of the tuber, and the roots emerge from any part of the bottom surface, and up the sides to the top shoulders. As such, it is easy to see how any part of the tuber that might break off would have dormant growing points for both leaves and for roots. This is very different from the likes of coum and the like that have a single bunch of roots on the bottom, and one cluster of stems on the top. Ones like hederifolium or africanum might be divisible, however. A number of years ago I had a rohlfsianum that was on the losing end of an attack by weevils. The tuber fell apart into three knobbly pieces when repotted. All of them survived when repotted into regular potting mixture--no special treatment required. Which begs the question, what keeps the tubers from rotting away after they have been nibbled by the weevils? Fungicidal spit? I'm sure that Dave's graecum will be fine, even without special treatment. Roots are easy to regrow, but the floral trunks on graecums take a long time to develop. --Roy NW of Boston 15" of snow is melting in a balmy 56 degrees One C. rolfsianum is still blooming
