# My sweet orange star has had the leaves wilt off and is starting new…

My sweet orange star has had the leaves wilt off and is starting new growth. This stem is from the last round and was wondering if anyone knows what to do with this little ball of what looks like sprouting tiny bulbs. Should I cut it off and plant it? Any tips would help as I don’t have many bulb plants and I couldn’t find any info on this off shoot.

I looked the plant up. The article I read said you’re supposed to leave that stem alone until it completely dries up. I think it’s similar to other bulb plants, where what’s left after flowering will probably be returning energy to the bulb plus making seeds. Those bulbous things on top where it flowered are probably where seeds are maturing. It said to let it dry up and remove to store in a cool dry place for the winter. You can propagate the plant by bulb division—if it made baby bulbs, each can be a plant. Plus you can plant the seeds if you save them.  
There are a few YouTube videos about it. I had never seen this plant before so it’s probably a good idea to read up on it and watch the videos.

Thank you. I have been trying to find info on that little cluster and I couldn’t find anything. That helps a lot and I’m glad I went with my gut and left it on the stem. I appreciate that info.
