Many others do this, in many different ways. A beccari,hottae,muellerii and others do this. Tony Avent saw this and thought, hmmm, I wonder how they'd do with leaf cuttings. Most species this works with, except konjac and albus and a few others. the rest form up to golf ball sized tubers from a leaflet cutting.
Amorphophallus symonianus is a really weird one. The bulbil forms inside the petiole, and then burts out.
