    It looks to me like bulbills, tiny bulbs that form around the parent bulb of some plants. Anemones are such a plant but I think they only produce one or two bulbills each season. These can be grown on into fair sized plants with care.

    From which plant did you aquire them ?

    Cheers, Tony.
