Re: Amorphophallus leaf cuttings

I have found with Zamioculcas that they do in fact sit dormant for a long time, as long as a year before new growth appears. I believe that members of the same Genera also do the same. I have propagated Gonotopus Boivinii this way as well and plan to try it with Gonotopus Angustus soon. A friend from Australia considers them to be weeds because they grow so easily this way for him.

There are experts here that have successfully propagated Amorphophallus in this way.

Hi,
 
I haven't tried to root any leaf but I think the species with thick leaves and veins (like A. haematospadix or A. atroviridis) can root easier.
 
Maybe anyone knows the answer to my questions?
I planted leaflets of Zamioculcas, the leaves withered, formed new bulbs, but the bulbs are standing still, they havent't put any new leaf since then.
