| definition 1: |
Many plants grow from seeds, but some plants grow from something called bulbs instead. A bulb is a small round thing that grows out of part of a plant under the ground. From this bulb, a new plant starts to grow under the ground near the first one. Sometimes people cut off bulbs from plants and put these bulbs in the ground in some other place to grow. Some flowers, such as tulips, grow from bulbs.
My mom and I planted a lot of bulbs in our garden. It will be fun to see the flowers when they come up.
