Narrative
Inbred. Bulbs high globe. Flesh fairly firm. Scales adhere well over long storage period. Both A and B lines have been distributed to seed trade and the inbred used extensively in production of hybrids. B 5546 when originally released was heterozygous for white perianth. Selections for white perianth were made, each plant selfed to test for possible segregation and true breeding lines were massed to retain original vigor and type of B 5546
