Arrgh, where are all the experts when we need them????  :>))

Part of this is terminology - I would say that once an increase sends up
a stalk and blooms, it is then called a mother rz because it will not
send up another stalk, but will produce increases. So, the direct
question to the above is no, rebloom stalks grow on new increases.
