Mark, actually that is what has happened to my Camasia. I have them planted
under a magnolia, which has grow too big before I could move it (Ironic:
Feeling as if one should relocate a yellow Magnolia because of some
bulbs...and not the other way around!). We're crazy!

Anyway, I haven't lost the bulbs, just the tips. I do love C. leichtlinii
semiplena, in fact, I just featured it on my blog,
http://www.exploraculure.blogspot.com/
I am always looking for bulb that boom during this tiny gap between May and
June where the ephemerals are completed, and the June flush hasn't started.
