We have some bulbs in the back garden (quite prolific) which produce
leaves just like a daffodil but the flowers are tiny and more like lily of
the valley.

Generally three small white flowers per stem with six or seven green
tipped petals.
No scent.

They are O.K. (I suppose) and seem to have produced a bit more flower this
year after being disturbed.
However the ratio between flower and foliage is not particularly
impressive compared to tulips, daffs et al.
I can see that they might be attractive in a woodland setting but they
seem to take up a lot of space and produce a lot of green just to produce
a few tiny flowers.

You can guess that they might be not long for this garden.

Sounds like Spring Snowflake

Don't throw them out - they're just a bit crowded. Divide them and they will
flower better. Give the leftovers to your friends.
