What is this?

[Springiscoming20]

Have millions of these tiny fine green leaves coming up. They come up doubled over then slowly unfurl. Some have a tiny black top. Popping up all over in a bed planted last spring. Thinking it must be a type of grass to be honest, but it’s very different to our lawn grass. If it’s obviously grass..sorry 😊

Looks like grass to me

Argh was hoping for something wonderful surprising us! It’s bloody everywhere!

If they're roundish rather than flat they could be onions, spring onions or chives?

They could be grape hyacinth. I have some that come up looking a bit like that.

Have decided to leave them in and see what happens. We have the time to dig it all out later in year if it’s grass after all :)

I think they look like a little bulb - grape hyacinth is possible as PP said. My grape hyacinth is already flowering but maybe you are further north.

I think they are wild garlic. I have some in my garden which seems to have invaded over the last couple of years.

If you rub one between your fingertips does it smell oniony?

Off to check...

Yes, they look like an allium of some sort

Definitely not grass. Some form of allium? They all look like that when they’re small. I would guess chives as they seed easily, but could be onions or ornamental ones. What was in the bed last year?

Wild garlic has a much broader leaf-blade. All alliums will smell of onion or garlic to varying degrees, so have a sniff.

Nope..no onion smell

Spring onions

Google is my friend. This is what mine look like when flowering. Apparently invasive. But quite pretty. Wild onions. Not sure if edible.

Omg you are geniuses!! We planted alliums last year but not in this spot! I didn’t realise they would spread!! Thank god didn’t dog them all out!!
