I stopped with my mouth hanging open when I saw these flowers being sold by a man on the street. You can buy the whole pot of lillies for 30 pesos, about $2.50, or buy the bulbs or the seeds. The bulbs are smaller than tulip bulbs and tinged with color so the man could tell which bulb would produce which flower. I was surprised that there are seeds. I thought bulbs came from bulbs. The man explained to me that the bulbs are only a food storage for the plant, inside are seeds. The downside to buying the seeds is that it takes years to get bulbs.
