"Commercial" Freesias

I have grown commercially produced Freesias and Ixias, planted in Spring,
which flowerd in subsequent years.
I believe that corms produce their flower buds from the shoots, and not
from inside the corm, unlike true bulbs which produce the embryonic flower
from the basal plate while the bulb is 'dormant'. (I am not sure how
Colchicums fit into this and would be glad to be enlightened. I know some
people are uneasy with them being corms.)
