Corms from seed

I had Ipheion uniflorum 'Album' flower from seed in less than a
year--something like ten months. This made me very, very glad that I
don't live in a climate where Ipheion thrive outdoors.

I can't say I've had any other bulb that was so precocious, although
like John G I have seen C. hederifolium (and/or coum) do its trick in a
rather short time if it's happy. I've never gone through the replanting
routine, however, before a year in the pot.
