Didn't seem to get the photo.

Do you remember what the bulbs looked like? If you scroll down to Colchicum luteum in the first link it shows the Colchicum bulb. My Sternbergia bulbs looked quite different, more even/rounded shape and darker ”skin” color - see second link.

Thanks to both of you.

I felt sure they were probably Sternbergia based on the leaves.

The bulbs were mostly round of a fairly light brown color basically like a narcissis bulb. When I received them, they had leaves already so I planted them as received,

Now, I would like to find some of the true Colchicum luteum, I really love this genus and have 6 varieties already, but all are pink-lavender except for 1 alba form.

“The bulbs were mostly round of a fairly light brown color basically like a narcissis bulb.”

Sternbergia is in the same family as Narcissus. Colchicum is not.

You had me excited. If you paid less than $40 a bulb for colchicum luteum here in the US I would have been flooding your message box asking for the source ;)

hmmm. I see it is sold (for much less) as a medical supplement on Ebay, I wonder what would show up if I ordered a few?
