Hi Okendenh and welcome to GoY. Did you cut of the leaves last year before they had a chance to die back, or tie them into a knot? I know they look untidy but they must be left to die back naturally as this is the time the bulb is forming the following years flower bud. You should also feed wit half strength liquid tomato food once a week to build up the bulb.

if the clump hasn't been 'touched' since planting they could just be over crowded. Follow moon growers advice on feeding and then as the foliage goes over lift the bulbs and replant with some space between the bulbs.
I had a clump like that last year , they were lifted and replanted and now have flowers waiting to open.

welcome to Goy from me too.
