Now if I can figure out how to post a photo....I'm going nuts trying to figure out what this is...
These bulbs put out a long leaf so it's just a green plant..The interesting part is how it propagates...small bulbs form under the top layer of the original bulb and as the outer layer drys they fall and root.
Jim...Thank you.... The lady I got the baby bulbs from said it was in the onion family or called an onion something.... I'll go with your call on this..it sounds right..
I think I found out what it is exactly. Ornithogalum caudatum
Ornithogalum caudatum is propagated from bulbils that are formed on the sides of the main bulb or by seed.
Which fits the plant I took the seed bulbs off of.
Ornithogalum caudatum, or False Sea Onion, is an interesting bulbous plant native to South Africa. The bulb grows above ground and will reach up to 4 inches (10 cm) in diameter. The strap-like leaves are semi-succulent and will reach up to 36 inches (1 m) in length. It is an easy plant to grow and it is well suited for containers. A couple of warnings, though: contact dermatitis is common in people who handle the bulbs and because of the size of the bulbils, they can pose a choking danger to children.
