Bulb is defined as any plant that stores its complete life cycle in an underground storage structure.  The primary purpose and function of bulbs is to store nutrient reserves to ensure the plants’ survival.  Bulbs are usually perennials.  They have a time for growing and flowering that is followed by a period of dormancy when they will die back to ground level at the end of the growing season.
