A bulbous plant

[Arda Takan]

I don't know what plant this is, it has only 1 wide leaf and a bulb as small as a nut. I'll be glad if you can identify it.
By the way I forgot to say how I found it, it is an endemic plant.

Looks quite like the leaf of a young, non-flowering Fritillaria. Was the bulb white, without a tunic?

[Arda Takan]

Yes

[Paul T]

My first thoughts were exactly the same as Lesley.  Definitely looks like a young Frit.

[Arda Takan]

By saying non-flowering you meant it is too small to flower or it will never have flowers at all?

[Paul T]

Too small to flower.  A lot of the frits put up when immature what I always think of as little sails, because they always remind me of the sail of a ship.  As the plants mature more these become multi-leafed stems etc (depending on the species of course) and increase in size until they flower.  Yours just looks like it is a small bulb that has only a single leaf "yet", but it will grow in time and hopefully get bigger each year until flowering.  How long that takes will greatly depend on what species it is, and therefore how large the plant needs to get to before it is flowering size.

Thanks Paul.
I searched the area where I had found it , and I barely found 3-4 all had only 1 leaf. It made me think how did they breed.

Could also be Erythronium sibiricum, but I don't know if they're found in Turkey.

[Arda Takan]

I'll keep an eye on it and we will see what truely it is I think =)

[Lesley Cox]

I'll still go with Fritillaria, and Heaven knows, Turkey has more than its fair share of those.
If there were a few similar leaves and nothing else, it's possible that a previously mature bulb has died for some reason, leaving just these young ones. It's also possible that the young ones are the precursor to a larger, perhaps flowering bulb. I find many species send up their vegetative babies first, followed perhaps even a few weeks later, by the mature flower stem. Your leaf looks very robust and thick so it will be interesting in time to see what species it is.

[Arda Takan]

Lesley what you say makes sense, because this little bulbs were very close to each other perhaps they were baby bulbs of a mature bulb.

[Maggi Young]

I do think these are baby Fritillaria bulbs.... they may take several years to get to flowering size, though the leaf you show does look strong.

Everything Lesley says makes sense Arda - You'll learn that if you stick around this forum long enough...

I will Luc, I ensure you
I have so many things to learn from you people

Egads, Luc.  Don't encourage her!
