They still have many bulbs that have not opened, but should I deadhead the ones that have withered already?

Thank you so much for your answers. :)

Thank you so much for your answers. :)Yes, you can go and pinch 'em off, and you can also cut the droopy green leaves, but no more than half. That's how the plant makes its food for next year.
You can treat all Bulb type plants this way.
