Look very much like Hyacinth. Nice to have a surprise garden in a new

Anyway, I'm thinking they look like hyacinths. The warm weather of the
past two weeks has got mine sprouting, too.


Grape hyacinth is a weed in many parts of Portland. Unless you like it,
then whee!

A couple of things to keep a close eye out for are bindweed and
blackberries. Either of those will take over if you let them. Check with
your new neighbors if there's something you're not sure of--if it's a
weed, they should know it.
