Dug up some bulbs and now i'm clueless (=^[]

Jessup, PA(Zone 6a)

So i have these Asiatic lilies for 2 years and I decided yesterday to dig em all up. I cleaned them and separated to root as gently as possible. They are not like any other bulbs I've ever seen. They come in layers, like little underground rose flowers, some petals came off of the main root bulb(for lack of a better word[s]). I don't know what to do with the petals you can see on your lower right hand corner let alone the bulbs themselves. PLEASE HELPPPP, lol
truly,
Elaine

close up on the petals of the bulb. If someone can also give me the right terminology, that'd be great!

They are called 'scales' and you can just plant them and you'll have more lilies!!

This will help.....
