I have an autumnal flowing Colchium that I was given years ago by a  
friend. When the first summer warmth shows, the bulbs send up tall  
spiral leaves, forming a cylinder. These die back in about a month and  
I learned if I water them thoughout the summer, I will get the flower,  
a pink to lavender one or more. What species or hybrid could this be?
