Examples of corm

• Portland sago is made from the corms of some of these plants. 

• Some tubers are very bulb-like in appearance, as the corms of crocus and gladiolus. 

• The flowers, when taken from the corm, should be lifted by a smart pull. 

• These small corms may be taken off in the spring and sown thickly in drills. 

• Whichever method is adopted, the crown of the corm should be left about four inches beneath the surface. 

• Damage, estimated as percentage corm tissue consumed by larvae, was similar among treatments.

• Thus, damage to the corm periphery is not a strong predictor of the more important damage to the central cylinder.

• These use not only different scoring systems, but evaluate damage on different parts of the banana corm.
