Name: Mone Chicago between O'Hare & Lake (Zone 6a)
Would it be Colchicum autumnale?
It was a passalong Colchicum that multiplies readily and much longer lived than other Colchicum in my garden.
It has a similar habit to that of Licorice squamigera, i.e. it sulks for a year or two after transplanting.
Thank you.
