Hi everybody.
I can report that L. leichtlinii and L. leichtlinii maximowiczii both produce bulbils. The former in my experience only when it is a blind stalk. Last year I had the biggest bulbils I have ever seen on a blind stalk, (see photo). The L. leichtlinii maximowiczii produces a lot more, so much so that I wonder if it has some L. lancifolium in it. (I got them in trade simply as "red tiger"). Also, of course, L. lancifolium flaviflorum has them too.
