L. sargentiae and sulphureum have bulbils and trumpet flowers like L. brownii. I didn't think that L. brownii produced bulbils. I don't think my L. brownii var. viridulum produces bulbils. However, you can sometimes induce a plant to produce bulbils by cutting off the top of the stem where the buds are.

I checked with Yucca Do Nursery about the plant I purchased as L. Brownii, and heard from them that later they realized it may have been L. Sargentiae or possibly another species. Wade was going to check their records. But by any name, it was a handsome warm climate lily. More later...
