    @haddow07 Chionodoxa is likely, similar to scillas.

    What colour is the centre of the flower? Chionodoxa usually has a white centre.

    I agree with Scilla.  Mine are out already, but they are in pots.

    I think a photo of the inside of the flower would be the way to confirm. Colours can vary a welcome addition to the garden in early spring.

    It looks more like a Scilla to me; the leaves are too broad for a Chionodoxa, I think.

    Scilla, almost positive.  Gorgeous little flowers, certainly worth growing.  Chionodoxa has bigger, paler flowers and a white centre.

    It has the look of a juniper to me... not very certain though.  @Silver surfer might know.   :)
