Rare Plants will still be here next year bonitin, lol, they have an autumn and a spring catalogue :~)

There is certainly a lot of reproduction of some sort going on with your martagons!

There is 6 scales, 5 are making tiny bulbs (is that correct Lefty? lol). I put them in the fridge with the hope they would make these tiny, or perhaps slightly larger, small bulbs. I have seen others have success doing this, and it has worked for me! Maybe some scales work better than others.

As you can see, this is greatly magnified. All at different stages, one at the 10 o'clock position looks to have 3 small cells, as in a dividing embryo.
