contents In a recent article by the authors [15] it was shown that wide classes of semilinear elliptic equations with exponential type nonlinearities admit singular radial solutions $U$ on the punctured disc in $\mathbb R^2$ which are also distributional solutions on the whole disc. We show here that these solutions, taken as initial data of the associated heat equation, give rise to non-uniqueness of mild solutions: ${u_s}(t,x) \equiv U(x)$ is a stationary solution, and there exists also a solution ${u_r}(t,x)$ departing from $U$ which is bounded for $t > 0$. While such non-uniqueness results have been known in higher dimensions by Ni--Sacks [33], Terraneo [40] and Galaktionov--Vazquez [16], only two very specific results have recently been obtained in two dimensions by Ioku--Ruf--Terraneo [22] and Ibrahim--Kikuchi--Nakanishi--Wei [21].
