Clivia Leaf Cutting

Hi Mark:
Definitely would be interested in the results from your Galanthus leaf
propagation experiment. We have very limited numbers of some Galanthus
that were wild collected in the Caucasus and would appreciate any insight
you or others on the list could share with regards to vegetative
propagation. The CITES permits/paperwork was incredible.

Experiments are underway for another amaryllid: Galanthus, for leaf

Objet : [pbs] Clivia Leaf Cutting
In the greenhouse today, I found a short piece of a Clivia leaf with a
plantlet on it. It was a piece of a leaf, about 4 inches long, that some
how
became buried in the soil that was kept on my potting bench. It's a
piece of
leaf, from near the base, but the plant is growing on the long edge of
the
green part- very odd- sorry for not being too scientific, here). This
which
surprised me. After a little snooping on-line, it seems there has been
some
chatter about Clivia from leaf cuttings, but I had no idea. I have a
great
photo of it, but not sure where I can post it. I have propagated many
bulblets on Lachenalia, but never on an Amaryllid.
I was going to post this to the PBS Facebook page, but it appears that I
cannot.
