Bulbil is a botanical term used to describe small bulbs that form in the axils of leaves or on the stem of certain plants. Some other synonyms for bulbil include cormel, bubil, bulblet, bulboid, and bulbet. These terms are often used interchangeably depending on the plant and the context of the discussion. Bulbils are a means of asexual reproduction for many plants. They can detach from the parent plant and grow into new individuals, which is a useful strategy for species that live in harsh environments or are difficult to reproduce sexually. Overall, bulbils are an important aspect of plant diversity and survival.
