Two choices really, you either dig up the clump and divide it, replanting the divisions OR you take seeds and sow them. They are not hard to gorw from seed, but they do take some time to reach flowering size.
Not sure what you mean by 'single leaf' but they are bulbous plants so you do need to get one of the bulbs.
