Wouldn't it be good if they grew from bulbils to flowering size in 1 year. Although henryii produces stem bulbils apparently, these are from a packet, no sign of bulbils on these yet, but have only just started flowering. Yours are doing well in pots.
One of the Lidl packet has bulbils on the stem, not sure what the colour was, probably the orange, but it was not a Turks cap.
