This is cool. I just harvested bulbils of L. sulphureum (from a previous BX) that I'm sending to the BX, too. Since I don't have L. brownii or L. sargentiae, but L. sulphureum is doing well so far, I'd like to try those two species out as well.

They have lasted well in the heat and relatively dry flowerbeds at my home here in Central Texas. The large blooms are white, the plant stalks are about three feet high. There are just now many richly green colored axillary bulbils, most with two or three "toothy" points on top. I'm used to brownish black bulbils, but not green ones. If you pull gently on them, they detach, so I suppose they are ready.
