Description: The bulbs are not sold for the purpose of consuming. Although it is an edible variety, I do not guarantee that the bulbs are safe to consume for everyone. Japanese Edible Lily bulb Yurine lily bulb for planting, 6-9" inches circumference. The pictured bulbs are the ones i planted, but they all splitted. You will get 6-9" circumference size bulbs. Yurine, botanically a part of the Lilium genus, is part of Lilies belonging to the Liliaceae family. Yurine is the Japanese term for edible bulbs and is native to Asia (esp. China and Japan), where it has been cultivated for centuries as a culinary and medicinal ingredient. The bulbs are also known as Bai-He in China, and it takes over six years for the plants to mature and produce harvestable bulbs. This slow growth, combined with farmers meticulously transplanting the bulbs annually, has caused Yurine to become a rare delicacy. The bulbs must also be stored for 2 to 3 months before to allow time for the starches to be converted into sugars for a sweeter taste. Yurine is a seasonally treasured ingredient utilized in home kitchens and restaurants in fresh and cooked preparations.Today Yurine is commercially produced in Hokkaido, specifically in the Makkari Village, and this region accounts for 99% of the bulbs sold for culinary purposes in Japan. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note: Although I did my best to pack the plant, I cannot guarantee the safe delivery of the plant once it is out of my hand. Please make sure to track the delivery and receive the plant on time. Once delivered, it is the customer's responsibility to help them thrive. If the plant arrives damaged, please immediately contact me and send me pictures to show the damage, so that we may work out a way for you. Breaking a few leaves during transition won't affect the plant much and it will recover very soon.
