Tiny above-ground bulbs in the axils of leaves are often referred to as bulbils. These structures can serve as a means of asexual reproduction, allowing the plant to propagate without seeds. Bulbils can develop into new plants when they fall to the ground or are otherwise dispersed, contributing to the plant's survival and spread. They are commonly found in certain species of lilies and other bulbous plants.
