tigerpaws said: Hamwild, I am thinking your mystery bulb might be a chionodoxa forbesii (Early snow glory). It is not a hyacinth. Hyacinths have wider leaves. I have the chionodoxa growing in places where I didn't plant them. Somehow the seeds are getting around. The chionodoxa are growing in my garden paths, in my raspberry patch and many other places.

That is beautiful! I wonder if they'd grow under an old Magnolia tree here. There's very little sun from the west once the tree fills out with flowers and then leaves and it can get dry there. I don't want anything that would need watering to mess with what the Magnolia is used to.
