Not necessarily. See here: E. Maurelii - should I try to separate the pups?

These guys, though not basjoos, which I always winter outdoors, did not have any problem.

My first basjoo was fairly big before the first winter and after that I separated them off to
spend the winter as orphans by themselves after they were at least 2 1/2 to three feet tall
including leaves
