Drosera coccicaulis is death. But when i remove it so i can use the roots, i observed that a leaf still attached to the main plant, has formed a new life, a plantlet, a "leafling" . Is this common ? It is a false vivipary ? I know that false vivipary involves growth from the flower stalk. But what if a plant almost dies (90 % of it) and from a good leaf appears a plantlet, the leaf still being attached to the plant, what this is called ? Or the plant, sensing his imminent death, developed a plantlet for survival ?

Here is a picture of an amazing habit of Pinguicula primuliflora that produce budding plantlets from the tip of the leaf. When the old leav will decay, the plantlet will have enought roots to grow itself.
