Last year's trailing begonias

I don't know much about trailing begonias, I lifted them after they finished and stored in wood shavings for winter. Checking on them today some of them have grown shoots do I remove them before I start to grow indoors or make sure they buried or pot them with corms buried and shoots exposed?

    Leave the shoots,  I’ve just found mine growing after being stored in newspaper for the winter and started them off in a seed tray,  anything will do,  mine are in homemade compost and garden soil.   
    Don’t overwater and not on the actual corms.  When they get to about 4 to 5” tall you can put them in their final pots at the depth they’re in the seed trays.
