I noticed the same thing in my garden this past year only it appeared on
some historic TB's.
My "necks" were a little more curved almost like a fish hook. It was
strange because the little increase appeared to be a couple of inches
from the plant but after digging around I noticed that it looped back to
the rhizome. Similar to diagram below:
