fall begonia bulbs

Question

I am putting away the begonia bulbs for the winter and find that the original bulb now has accretions of other bulb-like things on it. Are these like glads that can be separated and used to grow other begonias?

Answer 1

It is possible but can be difficult to divide the tubers of tuberous begonias:

A more reliable way is to propagate begonias from cuttings:
