However, it is closely related to phillipinense and formosanum, pictured below. Notice how the one on the left has two new sprouts to the right of the stem - the small sprout directly in front of the larger one. And notice how they still seem to be the same bulb. Unless bulbs are clearly divisible, don't try to separate them. A dividable bulb is like the one here: http://www.lilies.org/propagation.html (Okay, that second sprout in my pic may actually be a funny bulb scale(don't remember for sure), but for teaching purposes, let's assume it's a second sprout. ) |
