Dear Padmini,
Nice pictures; I can use them to show to my students. It is a type of
vegetative propagation where the propagules are formed on the
inflorescence axis along with flowers. If I am not mistaken each
plantlet is arising at the axil of the red bract. Do they form roots
too? I have seen it in Chlorophytum. I am not sure if it is true
vivipary; vivipary is germination of a seed while still on the mother
plant.
Thanks,
Chitralekha
