My single bulb, still has plenty of soil on top, but it's only planted this spring so perhaps haven't had time to surface yet. What surprised me a bit was that I didn't notice even a trace after stem roots. Yet it grew perfectly normal from what I could see. 30+ inches tall and two blooms, so didn't appear stunted in any way. So perhaps it's not supposed to have any stem roots?
