Today I took the bulbs out of the main bed and refreshed the soil with substrate. Last year I planted 18 bulbs in that spot. Bulbs that were there:

How many bulbs (of all sizes) have I found in this bed this year? The figure is quite impressive:
132 bulbs of L. regale
21 bulbs of L. henryi
7 bulbs of L. leucanthum (Black Dragon)
7 bulbs of tetra regale
6 bulbs of L. regale 'Album'

I think I will have to start using a herbicide for L. regale to keep his numerical condition normal. Whistling This reproduction is excessive.
Some henryi and regale bulbs were huge. This is 1st giant henryi which began to divide:
