Mystery bulb

Alberto:

Got any other ideas? I have a number of Z. drummondii (C. drummondii) 
for comparison, although I don't believe I have any Z. brazosensis (C. 
pedunculata). But, either description calls for a glaucous, twisted 
foliage. This foliage reminds me of Z. grandiflora foliage, about 1/4 to 
3/8" wide and about 8" long, just not as dark green. I will dig one up 
and take a picture of the bulb, which does not resemble Z. drummondii at 
all. I will try to post it to the WIKI and an image of Z. drummodii for 
comparison.

These are of images taken last summer, but foliage is starting to poke 
out now.
