A.bulbifer is one of several amorphs to use this strategy to multiply. The
wall cells weaken and collapse the petolie setting the bulbils away from the
"mother" plant as a way of propigation. It is called motility. You can
collect the , sometimes numerous, bulbils, store them and plant them next
year if you wish. Note that often the one at the center of the leaf is
misshappen. If you plant them all in time you will have a forest. Good
