The bulbs are narcissus. They're only going to get one chance at flowering - 2017. If the bulbs were going to be around for a long time I'd leave the offsets attached. My experience with nerine for example has been that offsets if removed too soon do not survive. -- David Pilling http://www.davidpilling.com/
