Tulips before spring
Bulbs are rounded underground storage organs from which certain plants grow—tulips, onions, garlic.
The shape extends to any bulb-like object, especially the glass enclosure of an incandescent light: The bulb burned out.
A camera's bulb setting holds the shutter open as long as the button is pressed.
In anatomy, the bulb is any rounded enlargement, as in olfactory bulb.
