I germinated some seed from a Eucomis Bicolor (Pineapple Lily) last
autumn
and within a couple of weeks I had 20 plants with one large glossy
green
leaf each about 4" long. Since then they have stayed looking healthy
but
have done nothing else. Is this normal and if so, when am I likely to
see
them put on some more growth?
That one leaf will be creating a root storage system. Many of that type
of perennial seem to take a long time to get a second leaf but they are
using the time to develop roots (can't remember if Eucomis is a corm or
rhizome).
