A friend in Tokyo recently sent me a batch of seeds, and included a few bulblets
from a plant at first he called a lily, but then said he doesn't know the name
of. The bulblets are green, about the size of a dime, and it is hard to tell
the top from the bottom. He told me to plant them on the surface of moist soil,
but not push them in or cover them. He sent this photo of the mother plant,
with various sizes of smaller plants around it, including some of the green
bulblets.
