Harvesting and Growing Bulb Offsets, Bulblets, and Bubils…GrownByYou    The time is coming when many gardeners will be lifting their spring bulbs—either to store them for planting in autumn or to separate crowded colonies of their plants after several years of dividing.🌿    Many true bulbs produce exact replicas of themselves, tiny bulbs that sprout along the outer edge of their bottom growth plate.🌿    Some parent bulbs lose vigor and die after one or two seasons. Growing the offsets is the only way to keep such bulbs flowering in your garden.🌿    Harvesting and growing these tiny plants looks hard, but it's actually quick and easy—just follow our experts as they demonstrate, step-by-step: grownbyyou.com/growing-flowe… GrownByYou: We’re All About How.℠ #BulbousPlants #FlowerBulbs #DividingBulbs #LiftingBulbs #GrowingBulbOffsets #GrowingBulblets #ReproducingBulbs #GardenProjects #PlantingProjects #BulbPropagation #GardeningX

Allow most true bulbs to complete their life cycle to see the miracle of entirely new hybrid plants emerge. For most, as the flower fades, a seed pod typically swells atop the flower stalk, as seen here for a Florist's Amaryllis (Hippeastrum hyb.). It contains ripening seed fertilized by other varieties of its species, each different from either parent. Plant the seed to see what emerges…and you've propagated a mystery plant that will bloom—uniquely and surprisingly—in a few years.
