Both above answers are correct. These are spring flowering little bulbs. They are awesome on the front part of any flowerbed. You will find them very hardy even in areas with difficult winters. Love them!

I have those too! Thanks for sharing what they are :) We have snow from november thru march (and sometimes longer) and these little babies often pop up before the snow is completely gone! They DO multiple like crazy - I have them in the small patch along the walkway to my front door and they are taking over that small place they share with the tulips, buttercups and daffodils!

I had a voluntary grape hyacinth pop up this year...Guessing a squirrel dug up a bulb and brought it to me :) I assume they grow from bulbs...

My husband and I were wondering what these were. They just started appearing. We didn't plant them but they sure came in somehow. Each year there are a few more!

I love them. They are such beautiful colors and so hardy. We mow around them until after they are done blooming, then treat them like the rest of the lawn.

I love yard sales and years ago, I bought a zip bag full of seeds, marked 'Bluebells'. I couldn't believe it since bluebells are a British endangered plant and didn't see how the seller had them, but for 3-4 $s, I bought them with my fingers crossed. I was pretty mad when they came up as grape hyacinths, since I already had those free! I wish people would educate themselves before they do such a thing! OK, only $4.00, but that's 2 pounds of butter on sale, and I am strapped for cash! The reason I do yard sales in the first place!

a/k/a Muscari. They are very invasive,which is why I love them. They transplant very well.

Didn't know what they were called, but they are beautiful and grow wild where I'm at (NW Georgia). We have lots of them.
