Hi,
Garry Koenigsberg wrote 'I bought an onion-sized bulb at the San
Francisco Arboretum years ago, but lost track of the name. The plants
multiply at a ridiculous rate and thrive on neglect. The leaves are
about a foot tall, and the stems a bit taller, bearing several florets.
Each has four white and green petals that open around four more petals
that remain attached at the top.'
