I have what is probably the same plant, and the structures you describe are
indeed bulblets. I used the ones off another plant to start my plants.
It's a slow way, though, as it takes at least two years for them to get big
enough to bloom. Genus is Lilium, I believe, but I don't know the species.
It may be a hybrid species in any case.
