Propagation
Surface sow fresh seeds during spring in flats and maintain a temperature of 19º to 27º C. (66º to 81º F). Prick out when large enough to handle and pot up (around 9-months).

Take leaf cuttings from spring to summer and placed in a protected environment until roots appear in 3-5 months, then pot up into a deep container.

Botanic information
Leaf: The thick fleshy bluish grey green linear (kidney shaped) leaves are up to 20 mm (¾ in) long and are covered in whit to greyish rough-tubercles. They are arranged in 2-ranks and normally the leaves are buried in the ground with only the truncate translucent apex showing, allowing light to the plant.

Flower: The green-keeled white 2-lipped tubulate flowers are up to 15 mm (⅔ in) long and are arranged in a raceme that is up to 70 mm (2⅔ in) long. This is held high above the foliage on a slender scape that is up to 230 mm (9 in) tall and appears from the centre of the plant during late spring and are pollinated by bees or sunbirds.

Fruit: The tiny loculicidal capsule has 3-valves and contains several seeds that are viable but the plant is normally reproduced vegetatively.
