A Lycoris Question

Dear Anita:

You will get only one stalk per "nose". An offset can remain attached
to the mother bulb for a long time, though, and I'm not sure it has to
be all that old to bloom, since it's still sharing energy with the
larger bulb. Lycoris bulbs can get crowded enough to affect bloom
quality, but you don't need to dig and divide for 7-10 years after
initial planting.
