While I was having a clearout I found a pot with some large Star of Bethlehem bulbs,about the size of pears. I thought I had lost them. Though they have been missing for at least six months and are totally dry, the bulbs still appear to be sturdy. My question is how deep should I repot them? At the moment they are sticking out well above the surface but I know some bulbs like this.

Everyone likes butterflies. Nobody likes caterpillars.

The thickness of soil covering them should be 2 or 3 times the size of the bulb, although it is not critical.
