Some of these, planted last autumn, are now beginning to flower - but the bulbs aren't very big. Do I just nip the flower stems out?
Still glowing, still growing, still going strong!

Behead them!
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

If they have plenty of foliage on them they should bulk up, when did you plant them, Jeanie?
