The scape or not for bulb or round came in handy again, since I missed a few of those small bulbs of Persian Star which came again this year... I left them to do their thing, hoping for some rounds, and I got some nice ones. One bulb which was probably in the worst situation (less nutrients and more competition) didn't produce any scapes at all, it was all rounds, and much larger than the cloves the year before. A couple of others produced a mix of scaping stalks and rounds. Only one had all scapes, which I've left in the ground for a few more weeks although I doubt they'll be any size, so close together. The others I pulled today before a big rain tomorrow.
