Something must happen with these monster bulbs. My bulb was large like AuntB's- flattened basketball. I let it die back and dug in late October, if I remember correctly (it was about 4 yrs ago). No bulb. Believe me, lol, I dug halfway to the center of the earth looking for that child!
This also happened with a very large Aethiopica Giant White. No tuber- at all! Harry and I dug this late in the fall and could barely lift it out of the soil. I was flabbergasted when I didn't see a rhizome down there!
Dang, I miss my fertile soil back in WI. I should have left 1/2 the junk I moved down here to TN and dug up all the soil, LOL!!!!
