Having had some years of a wildflower area,along with Alan Titchmarsh, find the pollinators prefer other plants we have, hubby digging it over, found a lot of these bulb things.

    First thoughts are the leaves look like angelica or alexander but I don't think they have bulbs.

    I agree … my first thought was also Alexanders or Angelica or something in that family. 

    It’s hard to see from the photo … is that really a bulb … looks more like a small tap root to me and that would be right for the above. 

    Can you slice  through it horizontally please @“Nanny Beach" … then we can see whether or not it has the rings showing the leaf structure indicating it is a bulb or not.

    Sorry Dove, it's gone into the brown garden waste bin. There was an awful lot of them.Have never grown angelica and have to confess, don't know Alexandra
