Bulb Identification?

This makes sense. It arrived in June, completely bare, but soon sprouted leaves. The leaves gradually yellowed recently so I cut them back and moved it to a drier situation. So I guess it's running behind yours, which probably had an earlier start to the summer growth. By next season it should have recovered from the jet lag.
I was amazed at how well all the imported bulbs did. Everything survived, and several interesting Ledebourias bloomed repeatedly and are now in a slow period but mostly not going completely dormant. I even have a seedling coming up from one of the Ledebourias - maybe when it gets bigger I'll figure out the exact parentage, but the seedling is growing very well so far.

Hey Bob,
Mine does go through an annual winter dormant period. It has been pretty
good about signaling me that it’s going dormant as opposed to me
encouraging the dormant period. I’ve not experienced the challenge of
changing seasonality. I’ll defer on the seasonality part on how best to
acclimate with live plants changing Southern Hemisphere to Northern
