After a long period of dormancy,the bulbs will develop into plants. The central bud uses food from the leaves to grow into young shoots. Once the leaves are exposed to sunlight, they photosynthesize. Excess food is transported to the stem to form new bulbs. When the mother bulb dies, one or more baby bulbs will be left in the ground.
