Division of established clumps or divide rhizomes with one or more rosette of leaves during autumn or after flowering. Place cuttings in a sand and peat mixture and keep moist, not wet.

Botanic information
Leaf: The glabrous obovate leathery leaves have a sheath-less petiole up to 18 mm (⅝ in) long and a cuneate to rounded base. The upper surface is mid to dark green with an obtuse apex and a ciliate-serrated margin and the underside is pale green. During autumn leaves turn deep red and maybe deciduous in cold regions.

Flower: The white turning pink funnelform flowers have 5-green pubescent leathery ovate sepals and 5-expending broad-ovate petals with an obtuse apex. They have a short pubescent pedicle and are arranged in an upright panicle-like branched cyme that is up to 80 mm (3⅛ in) long and it is held above the foliage on a thick reddish scape that is up to 200mm (7¾ in) tall. They appear from early to mid spring.

Fruit: The small capsule is 2- parted and up to 6 mm (¼ in) wide and contains numerous seeds that are viable but the plant is commonly reproduced vegetatively to maintain true to type.
