Lilium regale bulb with long root system.

More lilium regale bulbs:

Lilium distichum. A seedling from my original plants, and more representative of the species than my original pic earlier in this thread. https://garden.org/thread/view...

The second pic again shows the scale segment divisions in blue arrows that are characteristic of the species. Kinda hard to see, the original bulb shows it a bit better.

It's species selection but worth showing in this thread because bulb of "normal" leucanthum centifolium looks like this.

Lilium sulphureum bulbils which will soon (I hope) be in my hands. Then I'll take a better photo.

Lilium lancifolium

Small bulb, and very small bulbs. They are pristine white out of the ground. The larger bulb has color because it had been exposed to air and light for a week prior. These bulbs happen to be the unusual diploid form.

Lilium henryi

Lilium sulphureum


Sulphureum bulbils from leaf axil:

Lilium tenii (lijiangense) clump of bulbs


One of the bulbs, after exposed to two days of air and light.

Lilium formosanum var. formosanum (pricei form)

Lilium dauricum alpinum
An October photograph, this bulb at only 3/4 inch diameter at its widest point, had already bloomed earlier in this, the same growing season.


When compared with the larger growing species norm, the bulbs of similar size are identical, but would not be blooming size.

Lilium carniolicum bulbs:
