Nuts. *Now is fine. *Dig them up and transplant them. *You may lose
a few, because they are prone to rot in wet autumns and winters, but
typically not enough to matter.

Keep the soil saturated :-(

If you blink while passing a clump of grape hyacinths, a new one will
grow. *I thought that everyone knew that?

LOL, so I have found, so I have stopped blinking when I walk past
