Help with a mystery buld

A co-worker gave me two bulbs that I can not identify. The bulbs are 2-3 inches in length, start with a large round bulb and then have progressively smaller round bulbs going down (or up depending on how you hold the bulb). Any ideals?

 

A shot in the dark...without a photo...possibly Ornithogalum caudatum (or O. longibracteatum), Pregnant Onion.

Does it look anything like the one in the pic at this link?

Rosemary:

Thanks but it is smaller and looks less like an onion. I will take a picture and post it.

 

Arrhenantherum elatius bulbosum?

 

Ron: Thanks. I think that is it. One web site said it was a weed? Have you had any experience with this plant?

 

Variegated form grown as ornamental here.

 

Cheers.
