Nice info and a good read,
Be so Kind ...
All the varieties I've ever seen are corms [bulb-like]. I would have to say they are like drumstick allium and sunny twinkles on reproducing; haven't seen the rhizome variety, but that's not to say it doesn't exist in my neck-o'-the woods. And agree, that fall would be the best time of year to seperate/transplant [with a little bone meal]. Geez, summer hasn't even started and here I am talking about fall projects!!
Happy Gardening !!
