Question
Sighted these runners (expanders) of trout lily plants (Erythronium americanum) in hardwood forest near Croghan, New York (western Adinondacks) on a washed ground surface. The leaf-bearing plant (like one on left) produces 2-3 expander type runners as the old bulb withers and disappears. Tiny new bulbs are forming on ends of a couple expander growths. These odd growths can be seen on washed forest floors in late spring.
