Roosterlorn said:New introduction by H.W.Hyde & Son, 2015. When I went to scale the bulb for safety back-up, I found two bulblets the size of a green pea behind a couple outer scales. A third even smaller bulblet about the size of a BB pellet fell out from somewhere; so small I wasn't even going to plant it--but here it is---growing. Easiest 'back-up' job I ever did. Whistling







Whistling UPDATE, October 23rd, 2016. Bulblets were pulled today for transplanting. Originally planted on April 19th, 2015, two were slightly smaller than a frozen green pea and a third was BB size or about the size of a grain of rice. Here they are today. Planted in unsterilized garden soil and a light dust of Captan in a 1 gallon trade pot. The bulbs of this hybrid are quite small by nature.
