As I expect everyone here knows, true bulbs have tissue differentiation 
in the bulb. Here's a sliced open hyacinth. More "primitive" bulbs have 
the flower stalk arising from the side, rather than the center of the 
bulb. Example - crinum. Thought I had an image of a sliced open crocus 
corm but do not. Must remember this fall *. . .* But anyhow since corms 
are undifferentiated I don't see how they could have a flower bud within 
the corm, ready to go.
