Our original list is not here: it's still on DG.

it's in a thread called Who has bulbils? here:

I had compiled the posters' information and kept the complete list up to date in this post in the thread:

Regarding Lilium leichtlinii var. maximowiczii, since I now grow it from seed wild collected in Japan, I can say it definitely does not always produce bulbils. Mine never have (so far), and they are 4 years old from seed. They are not even remotely like the one claimed to be the same name in the DG thread. I am reprinting the list (below) for our use (and updating) here, and I have removed L. leichtlinii var. maximowiczii, pending dissenting credible data.

Always = the type produces bulbils ever year.
