Regardless of color I'd plant them at the exact height they are right now in the pot. Empty the pot and spread it out on its side so with your fingers you can see the depth of each bulb or "mini bulb" (bulblet, I believe) and then replant. Now I'm hoping that's clear :-) !! Why separate them from the mother bulbs? I don't see any advantage. If they're happy in the pot with the mother bulbs they'll be just as happy with her in the earth - that's my guess.

If they aren't attached now to "something else" (maybe the mother stem is what you're referring to?) then just don't fret.

Must run - will return around 3 PM.
