Edithcolea self propagation?

Post by Phil Hocking »

I noticed today that a piece has fallen off my Edithcolea grandis plant and that the broken surfaces are white in colour. There is a point above the break that looks like a white corky and cracked collar and I'm wondering if the segment above that will also detach itself. Is this perhaps the natural way that Edithcolea propagates itself?
