Thanks, Elaine Smiling It appears, then, that the PNW cycle is considerably slower than here.

Jacqui, is there a way for you dig up a glad bulb and check its size? If it is considerably smaller than what you planted and there are several where you planted just one, then I would guess that the small glads you saw were bulbils. If it is a case of bulbils, you may still see the mother bulb in the center - it will look like it is in really poor condition (very old, large and worn out) and there may be bulbils still attached to it. I can try to find an example in my garden and photograph it if it would help.
