I have at least 10 or 12 bulblets that are about the size of nickles, I'll happily split them up among you Smiling

Becky, while Cinta's sounds like it blooms more constantly than these, I suspect that may be due to my care and indoor conditions during winter. These have flowered sporadically at any given time of year, but January is when I always see a lot of stems at once, and 2 or 3 stems in June, with just a random single from time to time otherwise.

Lynn, I suspect these are a species, so I believe the offspring would come true from seed.

Margaret, I'll make sure to allow some seed with the next blooms. Several years ago I did gather seed from them to send to a gardener.
