Could the whole area be dug up in the fall and the bulbs carefully separated out, clean up and get rid of all the weeds/grasses growing in that area, and then re-plant the bulbs? Just a thought.


Well -- I'd say tiny little bulbs... like minuscule scallions.

But, what I would do is dig up the clump, pull it apart, pull out the grass stuff, and then sort of put the clump back together and replant it. Or divide it. Depending on how big the clump is.
