I have added two more photos to the Mystery Bulb<http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/…>page that was sent from Nick (see his message below). He was asking if the pendant form is I. maculata. The second photo is the upright form that is probably I. maculata for comparison. As Mary Sue wrote, I. maculata has large rust brown bracts often torn at the tip. That looks to like what the first photo shows. Does anyone have a better idea?

On the other point I attach photos (again sorry) to show what I mean. Nikko
