Stefan, Lin, and Sue - The area that I am seeing these bulbs/plants growing in, is an area that was dug up and refilled with dirt (due to a septic drain field being redone). I have never seen these plants before here locally. But then again the blooms are very small (about half the size of a dime). And yes, there does seem to be some pink in the tiny blooms.
